I am looking fo a good replacement header gasket for my SLP 1 3/4's. Anyone know of any good ones?

I don't, but I'm curious, what happened to the old ones, and how long did they last?

FelPro 1404. I have never had a problem with these. Then again ... I always retighten the header bolts after a couple of drives.

My headers don't clear my plugs so I'm looking for some alternatives. The SLP gaskets seem to be pretty good quality except for they hang into the ports on the 1 3/4" headers. I mangleg mine so I need some replacements. Does anyone know if it is possible to double-up gaskets so that I can gain some clearance?

Oh yeah, thanks Trax. Are the 1404's paper or the crush ring style?

The SCE copper gaskets I went with were
#SCE-011186
and they worked fine with me. And I used the stage 8 bolts as well.
