I don't have them, but you wanna get OEM mopar gaskets. The gaskets provided are cheap and leak.

I have a friend who races and he doesn't use any gaskets on headers. They can't blow out if they aren't in there!

Having said that, and since I don't race, when I put ARH headers on my 06 GTO I used the gaskets that came from ARH without any issues.

The gaskets that ARH sends are actually quality gaskets. With any cheaper brand I would always use the Mopar gaskets. With ARH, you are good to go with the gaskets that they provide.

Just the Y pipe for now. I figure as far as it comes back past the trans crossmember it's only gonna be a foot or so of 3" pipe to the muffler on a RCSB. It's just a really long X pipe. lol
