Exhaust leak solution....

I just installed some nice ceramic coated shorty headers on my 92 F-150 302EFI and I didn't get any donut gaskets to seal the headers to the factory exhaust. Well to make a long story short the exhaust/muffler shop used the factory gaskets and it's not sealing good at all and is causing my headers to leak? How much would it cost to add some new gaskets and seal the headers leak I am having? Surely I am not the only one that has had this problem?

they make a gasket called dead soft aluminum if you just have the triangle flanges on the headers and piping they will work they run about $25 for a set felpro also makes some aluminum ones

Donuts should be cheap, but get a good quality like a federal mogul/felpro. It's a simple unbolt and replace, drop the cat pipe, insert the gasket, bolt it back up.
