The gasket is blown out on the driver side header where the y pipe meets the collector. ONe can I use that will make a leak free seal on this thing. I can see a huge gap where the gasket used to be and theres black coming all out of the opening

The factory gasket is a steel shim covered with a paper composit. If the flanges are not warped, it should seal just fine.

Well, with the BBk kit I replaced with one of those junk paper gaskets and it blew out. Should I pick up a factory one? I dont think Percys makes one for that application, but I could be wrong.1996 Z-28 6 speed, Airfoil, K&N FIPK, Flowmaster muffler, Motive 3.73 gears, BBK shorty headers, cut-out, LS1 Driveshaft, no power options (Rare), Prothane tranny mount, MSD 8.5mm wires, Accel U-Groove Plugs, Chrome hurst short throw, TB Bypass, ES Torque arm mount, BMR subframe connectors (weld-in), Lt4 Knock Module, Descreened MAF, '02 SS wheels, Pioneer HU, MTX & JL amps, 2 12" JBL's, T-Top Conversion!
