Default Which Exhaust Gaskets for LS2 Headers
I'm getting ready to install a set of LG Pro Headers on my 06 Corvette. The instructions that came with the headers said to get a new set of OEM exhaust manifold gaskets for a 2000 Z28. The LS1 gaskets are round port which match the Header flanges better than the stock LS2 gaskets.

Did any of you do this when you did headers?

Thanks,
Glenn

LG provided the LS1 gaskets free, so I used them.
