Header trouble.

Had the same problem. Tried new gaskets... blew out. Tried double gaskets...blewout. ordered the Remflex and haven't had anymore leaks!
 
never knew about the remflex gasgets they look good i will try them sometime thanks
 
I made the mistake of over tightening the bolts when my first set of gaskets blew out, so ever since I've battled leaks in between the two center ports (due to the flange being warped). I tried a good set of gaskets, then double gaskets (blew them out in a month), but I had the best luck with Percy's Seal4good aluminum gaskets. They still leaked a little in the same places, but since they're blowout proof it never got any worse. I just had my headers ceramic coated so when I put them back on I'm going to double up on the gaskets, reusing the old set (they're reuse able).

You probably should run a flat file over the center to flaten it out.I would say its cup shaped and while they are off would be a good time to fix them for good.
