[DeTomaso] Header Gaskets (302BHeads)

I use Fel-Pro 1417 for my A3 heads.  They match the A3 exhaust perfectly.

They seal really well.  I usually reuse them several times with no problems
with leaks.

I believe the A3 and C302B take the same header gasket.

The port is almost round, slightly oval.

Will.

However slowly the Pantera engine and IR-EFI weekend progress continues. .
.we finally got Mike Trusty's system on my rebuilt Cleveland 381ci stroker
which is now in the Pantera and the polished system sitting on Kelly's
intake looks outstanding. We took some photos and soon as we transfer them
to AJ hopefully he can find the time in the next week to put them on the TPR
web site. 
   
  In the meantime before we bolt up the 180 degree headers does anyone know
a source or vendor for 'individual' heavy duty exhaust port header gaskets
for 302B heads and/or know part number??  
   
  Failing finding individual header gaskets do you know what the SVO 302B
header gasket part # is??  What I've done in the past is cut the gaskets to
fit but Dick Drenske told me today he thought he had heard there are
individual header gaskets that are heavier duty and work more effectively so
if they are out there I'd like to find them. 
   
  Thanks to Ken Green for coming through with a set (actually 2 sets) of new
intake gaskets for the 302B heads.
