Gasket
I just got a new set of doug thorley headers for my 94 toy 4x4 with 22re
it was used in good condition. The question I have is do I need a special exghaust gasket or can i use a stock one. clean air in take plenum and made
A small difference my gas milage up to 23.4 miles per gallon with corrected milagedue to lager tires. not bad hope get a little more with header. New tail pipe will have to wait a little longer. Just got bfg mudders only got 1 pair working on the other set.

I don't know if this is going to help but when I was going back and forth with LC Engineering they said that everything I needed would be included in the kit. Where are you planning on getting these headers? Summit racing seems to have some pretty good prices.

I can't say that I have the answer about the stock gasket but I've heard a lot of people complaining about gasket issues. Someone threw out the suggestion of going to a copper gasket while someone else mentioned double gasketing.
LC Engineering sells their gaskets for just over $15.
Maybe you should see if Thorley sells their gaskets separately? It's got to be cheaper than OEM.
