Does anyone else have problems with the stainless ATR headers leaking? I have been constantly going through this and ready to get rid of these things!! They are newer and I am using gaskets that they reccomend, but maybe I should not be?
Thankyou!

Try using two felpro 1400's on each side.

Yes, I had significant problems with an older set (oval port) that I gave up on. Running stokers now.

Leaks on ATR headers can be stopped. Where do they leak? i.e. at head, crossover ends, or crossover center.

Not very easily when the I.D. of the header port is LARGER than the O.D. of the machined surface around the exhaust port of the head!!!
