a couple of months ago i put metal gaskets on my pacesetter shorties. While i was at it i replaced the collector gasket on the driver side but used a paper gasket. i dont think the leak is coming from the heads and the headers because i used lock tight on the header bolts and made sure to let it dry for 24 hours. i think its coming from the collector. not sure. does anybody have any useful information? i heard when you use paper gaskets that u should let them soak in water over night to make them soft and sticky. i dont know if this true. any useful info would be helpful.

thanks

 

get underneath while its running and feel around to see if coming from beneath..

 

I dunno if its a good idea or not but spray some water underneath on your collectors or anywhere else you suspect a leak and then start it up. My leaks bubble when they're wet

 

dont tell people i didnt your exhaust

 

i ain't worried about it. its gotta come off when I drop the tranny here in a couple weeks...up next X-Pipe or do my Y like you did yours

 

get ya a verter?

 

not yet...still lookin tryin to decide which one, yank tt2600 tt3000 or TB...you know me i'll change my mind 14,000 times between now and then

 

think what a 4000 or 4500 stall would do think about haha
