i always us a thread lock of some kind but with exhaust u may want to use some thread sealant that will keep them from sezin up. i know it is recomended to use anti seeze on the plugs. aluminum and all. kool back on the road and singing loud. lol

Back to the exhaust, I put on the Percy's header gaskets and swear by them (as opposed to swearing at the cheap kind)!
They're a soft laminated aluminum, and conform better to irregular surfaces.
Auto Zone carries them.
