No difference. You could have a messed up flange on the header. I bought one for my Talon TSi AWD and it wouldn't seal either. Take it off and put a straight edge on the flange to see if it's warped.

My 82 came with a header but it was slightly warped and the PO told me it has been leaking for years. I pulled the header and bent it back out. Still quite a warp but not as bad. I ordered the Remflex gasket, put it all back together and there is not ONE leak on that entire system! I say Remflex it!
