Ive tried to to look for them in 2v..you have to forgive me just got out of surgery 5 hours ago. Percy is the name brand..heres is a jegs link but it is for 3v. I honestly never had a problem with them. I put them on when I had the stock engine and left them on when I swapped the lightning blower. http://www.jegs.com/webapp/wcs/store...&storeId=10001
Edit: their website.. Percy's Seal-4-Good Reusable Flange Gaskets are multi-layered and made from a special "Dead Soft" aluminum that conforms to header flanges for the ultimate seal. Because made from multiple layers of dead soft metal, Seal-4-Good easily conforms to small imperfections that copper gaskets simply can't, and these gaskets will not blow out or burn out when properly installed.

Really? Eric(RideThe) a Ford Master SVT Tech that basically know everything about Ls has told me not only OEM but there even isn't a need to buy new ones. Reusing the OEMs are find! A friend took that advice when installing Kook LTs on his 03 HD and there are no issues!! BTW, I ran OEM gaskets but I also ran OEM manifolds. Wayne

You guys having header sealing problems... Before you install them run a straight edge down the flange, if they are crazy off, take them to a machine shop and have them level'd.
I don't know if ford uses the same as chevy, but we don't run header gaskets... We use the factory style metal manifold gaskets.
