    I have a set of KB full length headers on my 462. And they are really starting to leak at the heads.

    What are the best gaskets to use???

    How do I get them out w/o pulling the engine???

    I like the sound but they hang very loooooooow. Would I be better of to switch to a set of TA shorties??

    I have full 3" exhaust thru dual chamber flowmasters. And it is very loud, I do not mind the noise ("What dear, speak up") but Ihave been told that 3" pipes are over kill. Yes/no.

    It is a 462, KB MK118c cam, heavely ported 109 heads and B4B, 10.5:1 comp, John Osbourn q-jet.

    How much is recommended to fill a block when used for street use???

    Madcat455 Need..more... AMMO!!!

    I usually use Exhaust manifold gaskets.... They are separate from eachother, and don't require removing all the bolts to put in. Only have to remove one bolt (ironically the hardest :spank: ) and loosen the others. they also seemed to last longer than any actual "Header" gasket I've used.

    :TU: :TU: for ease of installation for those....
