Ooph! One bill. That's a hefty price for what seems to be no more than a set of 12 metal rods. What's the difference between using those and ... well ... not using those? Just looking for some edumacation, jou know? Tharnks.

How bout dem gaskets? Dead soft aluminum or Carbon XX?

Re: Header Gasket Leak

The stainless won't "rust up" and be a real bitch to remove.

The carbon gasket is not reuseable.

Re: Header Gasket Leak

Anyone know if the bolts coming with the Kooks now are stainless ? They appear to be.
