Exhaust gasket sealant?
Just as the title says.
When i take off the friggen downpipe, AGAIN i want to make sure that it isn't gonna leak exhaust gases. Im thinking of using two gaskets and bolting that **** up real tight. However, should I just use one, or should I use two and sealant of some type? What would you guys use to 'seal' the deal?
thx

I was having problems with leaks out of my header and I used Ultra Copper silicone which was the highest temp rating I could find at the autoparts store. Needless to say, no more leak and recently when I took off the header it seemed to have held up just fine. Oh and I used 1 gasket with the sealent when I did this where I had sealent against the header surface, then the gasket, then more sealent on the gasket. The gasket is now perminitely fused to my block
