Thanks for the write up, but I am quite aware on how to properly seat and seal the gaskets. I do retorque the bolts after every heat cycle for about a month after the install from the center out. Both the head and collector flanges were cupped and twisted, which is probably why they were leaking. When I get new headers, Im gonna save up for kooks long tubes, Im not wasting my money on pacesetter again. Good headers for the money paid, just not for me again. Just wont have the money for a while. Im just a broke kid with too many bills, so I am trying to work with what I have for the time being.

They seem to seal fine up until a few runs at the track. They just dont hold up to going through the rpm range.

I thought using stainless bolts on aluminum was a no-no. I was under the impression that over time the threads would become galled and could potentially strip out the heads.
