header leaking at exhaust manifold

I had the same problem with the middle two ports and could not for the life of me get it to seal. One day on the way to work I blew another gasket so while i was at work I wrapped the offending ports on the gasket in several layers of heavy duty tin foil i then cut out the holes and bolted it back up and to make a long story short years later it was still holding. Now if your gonna do it correctly this is not the way but in a pinch and if you have a lousy memory to remember to change it out, this way works like a champ,( at least it did for me).
