Edelbrock header gaskets
Does anyone know what gaskets Edelbrock uses with their TES headers?
I'm replacing a head gasket and they are on my long list of replacement parts. A part number would be great.

I wouldn't reccomend getting replacement Edelbrock gaskets, I'd get some good dead soft aluminum or copper gaskets. They'e about $30. While you're at it you might want to look into getting Stage 8 locking header bolts. They're $35 and with that combination you won't ever have to worry about leaky header gaskets again.

It was actually a head gasket that I was replacing, never had problems with the headers. I guess as long as I get round port header gaskets for SBC then they will work. Summit tried to give me a part number for square port gaskets which is wrong.
Any preferred brand of gasket?

I'd go with Fel-Pro. They make good quality gaskets. Give Summit a call for a price since I'm not sure of your application.

fel-pro 1444 are the ones I use and they fit perfect and last longer than any others, exept for the metal ones that are reusable. I think you will have to order them though.
