OK, so I finally have my header off, pull the old gaskets out and compare to the new gaskets I bought... They are not the same. I see discussion about using a "generic" EVO gasket which is apparently just a flat ring and I think that is what I bought. Here is what the old ones look like: http://www.americansportbike.com/shoponline/ccp0-p rodshow/5931.html This is what I bought based on the description: http://www.americansportbike.com/shoponline/ccp0-p rodshow/5930.html Am I screwed or OK with these gaskets? |

What pipe are you running? You'll be OK with either. The Screaming Eagle type gasket works well with about every type of header - especially aftermarket. Pay attention to pressing the new gaskets into place - don't kink them by putting them in crooked and then forcing. On bolting the headers up: Proper torque is important (don't trust your "feel") (Message edited by slaughter on April 18, 2010) |
