I know this goes against the cheap rule but if someone has headders that are constantly leaking I HIGHLY suggest copper gaskets.

Yes coppers work well but in my case the header port weld ring only catches the port by 1/32" in a few places so mine are heading for the garbage as soon as I can get a set of manifolds.
