I just installed the edelbrock shorties and the problem im having is exhaust leak from the flange to the headers. i used mr gasket paper gaskets. should i have used the stock donut gasket does anyone else sale gaskets. thakns Gene

 

Are you using your stock bolts?

 

no i had to cut two of the bolts so i bought bolts and nuts the passenger side sealed but the drivers side has a slight leak.

 

hmmm... did u use those same paper gaskets? Your probably right, they might be the problem.

 

Central Autoparts down here carries felpro.. Try anywhere like that..

 

If you bought the edlebrocks new it should have came with all the gaskets and bolts...if not try buying some felpros #1438 but make sure its not leaking from where the y pipe bolts on .

 

okay i finally got it fixed up. i bought the felpro gasket for the drivers side and the donut gasket form the dealer and used a little high heat cilcone, no leaks. im happy. how many horse so you guys thinki got out of these shorties i was thinking 5 or 10. or is that to high? i only paid 70 plus 20 for the gaskets so i think its not that bad of a deal. i happy with the look.

 

i have long tubes now but i use to have them edelbrock shorties. when i put them on i could definately tell a difference in the bottom end. i think you did good.

 

well i ran a 13.67 through mine look at sig..

 

i think once i put the posi with the 410s i might be in mid 13s im hoping. Gene
