Default Does anything go on the copper exhaust gasket ?

I just got my copper exhaust gaskets in for my headers. I was wondering if I am supposed to put anything on the gaskets to make it seal better ? Any thing for the bolts ?

Any help is appreciated. Thanks

Yes: Either Hi Tack, or the copper spray.

Personally I recommend Hi Tack
Silver spray paint also does the trick for a race application that you are going into all the time...its quick and very effective.

Thanks for the advice. I'll try to pick up the HI Tack today from O'Reillys...Do I spray it on the back of the gasket and then put it onto the header ?

Or just gasket to exhaust ports ?

Or both ?

it's still not too late. You don't need any of that crap if you just use Percy's
