thats prob your better bet to do so personally.


should use a new gasket which is around 10$ and shouldnt have any leaks whatsoever. no gasket maket, sealer stuff needed.

the gaskets they send with the header are always crap. so it's best to go pick up a new Felpro gasket. If you do have any leaks after that... then you screwed something up.

just go to any GM dealer that sells parts, pay 10-12$ and be done with it.... doesnt have to be felpro...stock MLS works fine.

well if you have leaks, then thats obviously against ya...

depending on the size exhaust, cause your registry is vague as nuts, that can also count against ya.

driving style is also a factor.



and a muffler tip isnt really a performance deal..

That's really effed up. Considering what a popular vehicle it is, most parts carry multiples IN STOCK. I know most basic gaskets and things for my car are always in stock

they wanted $75 to install the gasket? are you kidding? that's not difficult at all... as long as you can get the alternator unbolted quickly
