Author Message   Buelltroll Posted on Thursday, September 20, 2007 - 08:44 am:        So my new CF chin fairing don't quite fit. I'm having tabs welded onto the braces of my D&D this weekend. Will I need a new gasket on the header?   New12r Posted on Thursday, September 20, 2007 - 10:16 am:        I have never replaced the header gaskets on many header swaps/remove & reinstall. Never had a leak either. Besides, they are a pain in the @ss to change.   Glitch Posted on Thursday, September 20, 2007 - 12:10 pm:        Will I need a new gasket on the header? Why are you removing the header? There is no gasket between the muffler and the header, if that's what you're asking.   Natexlh1000 Posted on Thursday, September 20, 2007 - 01:05 pm:        They CAN be a pain in the ass to replace. I heard that it's more easy if the new ones are put in the freezer overnight. I haven't tried this trick yet.   Buelltroll Posted on Thursday, September 20, 2007 - 07:41 pm:        Hell I dunno I remember my pipe came with a gasket and wasn't sure if I'd need a new one. Apparently I'm retarded or something cuz there is no gasket in between. Maybe it DIDN'T come with a gasket it's been a while since I put it on.   Natexlh1000 Posted on Thursday, September 20, 2007 - 07:49 pm:        It's not really a gasket. It looks like a ring made of steel wool. cylindrical on the outside and angled on the inside. You probably still have the factory ones in the head.
