Re: header
I use felpro exhaust mainifold gaskets(the silver metalic ones) on headers. Have had very few issues after putting them in instead of the paper header gaskets.

Re: header
Same here, only mine are made by DANA, and instead of one big gasket for the whole header there are actually three separate mini-gaskets per side - one for the front cylinder, one for the rear, and one for the two middle ones.
