Default Need Help w/Header Gasket p/n

What is the Stock GM Header Gasket p/n?
Anyone have a Felpro p/n ??

I don't think it matters, but I have a Y2K w/TPIS Long Tubes.
Header gaskets and Exhaust Manifold gaskets are the same thing, eh?

TIA!

Looks like Federal Mogul owns Felpro and they've gone Bankrupt.
The idiots there refuse to help me or even tell me if they make the part. Guess I'll never buy anything from those Azzholes again.

Anyone have the stock GM Exhaust Gasket p/n?

Hey Mike..
I just saw this.. I was going to say. Mike Norris used my existing gaskets when he installed my TPIS. He said if they were in good shape there was no need to replace them. So it does not matter if you have TPIS.

Ya. I've had mine off probably 4+ times and may have developed a minor leak. Wanted to use something better than GM if they were being made.

Good idea. Jegs didn't have anything.
Summit gave me a lead on a gasket manufacturer called SCE.
Summit had a 2 week lead time and no stock.

Called SCE. (800) 427-5830
They make a Copper LS1 Exhaust Manifold Gasket.
Summit $32, SCE Direct $40.

Should be better than stock re: header leaks.
I ordered a set.
