I use those on my car.... only header gaskets that I've ever reused
best story, though, I forgot to tighten a bolt on the back of the manifold.... no leak. try that with your paper or copper gaskets.... my only issue with them, though, you need longer header bolts - and those can be sometimes a bit hard to findDoing it all wrong since 1966

Thanks Chris I think I have lost alot of my followers on that site with no progress on the Torino and rambling on about everything other than a Torino project. Good luck with yours and I am hopeing to get back on mine after the power tour.Greg & Mendy Dayton, Ohio 2007LH 2008LH 2010LH 2011LH 2012 1st 2 stops 2013LH 2015 1st 2 stops2016LH 2017 first and last stops . 2018 LH ("It's better to be dead and cool than alive and uncool!!

The car does not look a whole lot different after today's efforts. The exhaust is 85% in, the rear end is bolted in as is the drive shaft and the new air shocks (still need to run the lines). Spring finally arrived and I needed to take care of a few thing around the house and garage. One of the garage things is the "pink" wall. I have a 30' x 50' shop and I only have half of it insulated for heat. I also like to have it wide open when I can. So shortly after it was built I put up some stub walls and a soffit so that I could separate the two sections with 1.5" hard foam insulation which happend to be pink. Here are a couple of shots of the wall with a couple of sections removed:

Slow and steady eh? As long as I don't have any major surprises I should be fine.Chris - HRPT Long Haul 03, 04, 05, 13, 14, 15,16 & 18

I'm getting ready to install my transmission cooler lines. I have a 700R4 and a side tank cooler (stock cooler in the radiator). Does anyone know if it matters which line goes to which fitting? I don't think it could matter much but I am planning on connecting the top fitting on the trans to the top fitting on the radiator.
Please let me know if you agree or if you think it should go the other way. Thanks,Chris - HRPT Long Haul 03, 04, 05, 13, 14, 15,16 & 18
