Bellinger Header gaskets

[02ViperTodd]

It's been 9 years since I put my exhaust on and I can't remember if I had to use Bellinger specific gaskets. I've developed a leak in the right bank (passenger side) that I'd like to take care of this weekend. Bellinger or Dodge or wherever i can find one or will I have to buy a set?

Anyone know or have one laying around?

Thanks
Todd

I just had mine apart and they are recommending the current mopar exhaust gaskets, I believe they are MLS like the head gaskets

Don't use those fiber gaskets from Belanger. In a nutshell, they ****. Use the OEM MLS manifold gaskets, $16 each from VPA: https://www.viperpartsofamerica.com...odge-viper-exhaust-manifold-gasket-05004014aa

Thanks Tony...I just left a message for Jon B. hopefully he has them and can send them overnight...I believe I did previously use the fiberglass ones...may still have the OEM I took off...Don't know why, I'd never use them..

Thanks Again
Todd

Left the ones Bellinger sent in the package and reused the stock ones without any problems! Maybe your stock ones are still around?

no such luck KV..I'm trying to get ready and have stripped the right side of the engine bay...DAMN that lower bolt on cyl 10 I HATE YOU IHATE YOU I HATE YOU...Which is probably why I have this leak in the first place.

Any hints would be GREATLY appreciated...Any hands on would be PAID!! (in beer)..

Amazing how many tricks you forget in 9 years...GOD I was a puppy when I bought this car...

Gonna go play somemore damn you 10 cyl bolt!!
