Default Some header help in Hampton Roads....

Looks like my slight header leak is getting worse. I can't remember the name of the shop I dynoed at during a RatPak Dyno Day but the owner was Ed I believe. Is he still in Chesapeake and could someone please give me some contact info so I can get the gaskets replaced. Thanks in advance.

IMO, i have found that no gasket can beat the stock gm MLS header gaskets. might want to think about switching to those.
