During my recent rebuild following a fender bender I decided to replace the header gaskets on my '50 while the front clip was off.
They're generic block huggers,i'm not even sure what make.
Long story short,they now leak even worse than before!
All the flanges and cylinder head ports were thoroughly cleaned,new Fel-pro gaskets fitted (dry) and all header bolts were evenly torqued.
Buying new,better quality headers is NOT an option at the moment.
Or fitting an
original Stovebolt motor for that matter....
Question: Can any of you recommend a high temp sealant that I can use or would basic exhaust assembly paste suffice?
Suggestions/advice please....
Thanks.
