Big Block Exhaust Manifold gaskets
I am in the process of putting my Big Block together and wondered what is acceptable for exhaust manifold gaskets
The Felpro set is ugly so am in the process of trimming them down for individual use. What is suggested for showing the car, with or without gaskets?

Re: Big Block Exhaust Manifold gaskets
What car?
1970 Chevelle big blocks had no gaskets at all on the exhaust manifolds.

My 67' SS396 Chevelle had no gaskets between the head and manifold ... TAZ

Re: Big Block Exhaust Manifold gaskets
Sorry
1969 L78 I know most did not have them from the factory but always thought once they are removed they would warp and leak

Re: Big Block Exhaust Manifold gaskets
.... So "a thin coat of ultra copper" between the head and the stock exhaust manifold ? .... Would that be okay for a 1969 427 motor? .... no gasket at all [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/dunno.gif[/img]
