While showing my headers to my friends one asked if it came with paper or copper gaskets (headers are not on car yet). I said paper why? He said to get copper gasket because you will hardly ever have to tighten the header bolts and paper ones suck. I was just wonder if this was true and if it'd be worth it to go out of my way to get them? If yes, can anyone here make them or know where I can get them made?

I don't know of any Copper gaskets for our headers. I had no problems at all with the paper gaskets from Pacesetter. I went ahead and tried FelPros when I did my cam swap, and now the right header won't seal. Gonna switch back to the paper ones. Just tighten down the bolts for a few heat cycles. After about a week, they should be fine.Matt

I have problem with the stock gaskets from pacesetter. They are already leaking,and have been on there for about 1-2 months. I am going to look into copper. ;)Jordan<br />15.09@90.7<br /><a href=\"http://www.fullthrottlev6.com/forums/vbgarage.php?do=view&id=21\" target=\"_blank\"><b>1995 Camaro 3.4 M5</b></a>Comment

But to be fair, you have a 3.4. They could be designed a little better on the 3.8s (just a little [img]tongue.gif[/img] ).Originally posted by 93camaro_zzz:
