Felpro 1404/1405/1406 vs metal gaskets
What are your thoughts on typical headers using Felpro 140x series gaskets vs the metal ones (that are basically OE type manifold gaskets) ?
Is their any evidence the Felpro type seal better ?

I'm a big fan of the multi-layer steel, I have run headers with those for 150,000 km with no leaks or retightening, seem like the best option for na motors to me. the only time I have ever seen them leak is with factory cast manifolds when they warp and break manifold bolts off, but for headers they're perfect!
