Default Exhaust Leaks at Header
I just put my motor back together and I have big leaks at the header/cylinder head connection.

The exhaust is what came with my SPF and the heads are Edelbrock 460 RPM heads.

I put the gaskets on with the numbers facing away from the motor.

When I looked at the new gaskets I bought to fix the damn leaks, I realized that if its put on backwards, it moves the holes slightly, perhaps affording a better fit. Is backwards the right way?

My other option is to use NO gasket and just hi temp silicone.

Any thoughts?
