header gaskets

ok, i posted this over in the ranger forum, and got no answers.. i know its only been a day, but i need to get my truck back together asap. so heres my question;

does anyone know where i can find header gaskets for a '99 ranger with a 3.0L engine. i have jba shorty headers. gaskets came with them, but they look kind of flimsy, so i wanted to get good quality ones so i don't have to do this job more than once.

thanks, paul

JBA is a very high quality manufacturer, so I would trust that they did their research when choosing what gaskets they wanted to OEM.

Just make sure you re-tighten those bolts the next 100 miles or so.....then you should be good until they ever have to come off again.

A set of Stage 8 locking header bolts will make sure your headers stay in place. You can find them at Summit Racing.
