That is what I have had installed on the Pantera............ but they are too hard to conform to my poorly fitting headers....... Looks like time to work on correcting their non true condition..... A stock factory Cleveland in an 70 Torino uses no gasket between manifold and head ........... years of running and 144,000 miles with no leaks.

I installed copper exhaust manifold header gaskets about 15 years ago on the recommendation of a drag race buddy. Others might chime in but I've not had a problem since.They might even have something better now days, but it was a good quick fix back then. Sorry no part #'s but here's a link.
