They're a lot thicker and you can see the quality difference in them. They should last over the years as well.
Think I'll be getting back under the car again today after work. I'm not convinced my overpipe is fully sealed to the header as I could feel a small gap with my finger even after tightening. I'll try to push up more on the overpipe before tightening to see if I can close that gap and end the small leak. I did torque the header to 35 ft lbs though starting with the front nut on the passenger side first, working my way back, then moving to the driver side. There was some soot around the flange on the overpipe I rubbed off and the top part along with the gasket. I'll try to get it as flat as I can against the header before tightening.
