Well I finally got the leak pinpointed. The header gasket on the passenger side has gone to shiznit. The bolts were loose etc. Complete blower. Whoever installed the aftermarket headers must have used the crappy paper gaskets. I ordered the ford oem gasket today and hopefully this does the trick. While I had the mechanic take a look at the leak I figured Id have him throw an MRT H pipe on there to complete the exhaust since he had to take it all apart anyway. lol Hopefully all is well when i pick up the car tonite. :thumbs:

I reused my factory gaskets when the long tubes went on. They are by far better than the crappy paper(or whatever) ones...

Same here, the shop that did mine reused the stock ones.

I used brand new oem gaskets. Also stage 8 locking header bolts wouldn't be a bad idea.
