I do not recommend the Percy gaskets. Maybe it was the install, but they blew out on me, twice.

I use regular Fel-pro gaskets on my BBK's. No problems at all.

I have Percy's 68034 XX Carbon header gaskets on my LSC with Kook's, so far, so good.

I'm using Remflex header gaskets on my SC, and if I ever have problem with the Percy's on my LSC, I'll switch to Remflex (p/n RF3019) gaskets for it as well.

That makes me sort of nervous since I am running the Percys from SCP. 2 years and no leaks so far though from what I can tell. Isn't there a necessary re-torquing of the header bolts after the initial install and they have been heated up?

Never used them on a 4.6, but I love the Percy's dead soft alum ones on a 302. Paired with a set of Stage 8 header bolts I have never had any issues.

Like I said it could've been an install issue.
