Default Blown Pacesetter gasket What Now?

I need a quick fix, is Fel-Pro manifold gasket strong enough for an engine that puts out in excess of 325 hp at the wheels?

Use the stock exhaust manifold gaskets. Call up SDPC. Sponsor on the right side.

stock gaskets will hold twice that, if you have your originals they are reusable - so use them
