The headers I've installed... Stainless Works, Belangers, TPIS, LG, and FLP all work well with the older style 97-00 GM stainless steel sandwich gasket. Even with a poor quality LS1 header (F-Body) made by Hooker... the GM gasket performs well with no leaks. I recommend always using a new gasket :)
