I use ultra copper RTV AND gaskets on exhaust connections. With solid copper header gaskets, no leaks or loosening. With sandwich type header to J pipe, no leaks, but gasket falls apart when it's removed. Now that I know where to get copper J pipe gaskets, will use them next time they're apart.

Mentioned this on CACC forum but I don't think here yet. Just within the past week I've solo'd in Cobra. First time since Nov '03. Legs working much better.

Navy fighter jocks may disagree with me on this, but driving a Cobra is about as much fun as a guy can have with his clothes on!
