exhaust gaskets

Im getting my exhaust finally put on march 21st. I bought a used header and downpipe and need gaskets. I need the header gasket and the gaskets that go on the downpipe. Anyone know where i can get them and how much?? And do they make paper and metal gaskets cause id rather get a metal gasket for inbetween the motor and header?

THANKS

i always replace my gaskets any time we have my exhaust off, considering they are inexpensive its just peice of mind know there is a new gasket on there. In most case the stock gasket is paper and most likely because of the heat will be in bad shape when you pull it off

crate engine depot has all the gaskets you would need. I re-used my header gasket becaust it's metal and was still in good shape, but you should always change out the paper style gaskets.
