Kooks header gaskets?
For those of you that have installed Kooks brand long tube headers on your C6, did you use the gaskets that were provided in the kit or something else? thanks

Haven't done it yet, next week I hope so I cant answer the question but in looking at the supplied gaskets from Seal4Good and their website it says to install the gaskets one way and they cant go that way because of the 2 center bolts being off set from center line, in other words only go one way, the opposite of their instructions. They have a concave on one side, when I talked with them they said it was never brought up before but that it didn't make any difference 
The are a crush type gasket.
So anyone with input please feel free. I forget if they say to put the concave against the heads or header but no matter , it only goes one way, if I'm wrong please advise
