I will be needing to replace the gaskets on my coach at some point. It has dougs headers on it and has a leak. Not sure what gaskets are on there now. Its not that bead yet but on the ever-expanding 'to do' list.
What I have found to work best on other applications is copper header gaskets with a thin film of cpper high temp silicone. Much talk on here about the Remflex gaskets has convinced me to try them. However the first oppertunity will be on a 340 Cuda Im reviving
I take it no coatings needed on the Remflex gaskets? Planning on using studs for the 340. Prob a combination of studs and bolts on the Olds. I remember som talk about not fully tightening the center bolt. Is that on headers, manifolds, or both?
If they work out I may use them on a chevy twin turbo engine I will be swapping out soon. It has canst iron turbo specific manifolds. Wondering if the Remflex is the best choice on those, given the heat and pressure.
Hopefully Matt C will chime in
