New Small Block Stroker Engine Noise

get a set of Cometic header gaskets - they are the same design as the Felpro and will stand up to a lot. I've re-used mine 3 times so far with no leaks of Eddy heads and TTi headers. throw the tti gaskets in the trash can.


The top gasket is the FelPro 1413 which is recommended by Edelbrock. The heads are port matched to this gasket. The bottom gasket is what is supplied by TTI. The headers match the TTI gasket. You can see the headers won't seal on the outside ports. This is like running 340 manifold on magnum heads, they just won't seal. This could very well be what is making all the noise. Now how do I resolve the issue??
