if it's just backfire b/c of not a lot of backpressure that not a bad thing ( look at srt-4's).... if you are completely convinced thatit'sthe head gasket, best one on the market is Cometic, i get all my parts from CIMotorsports.net but you can find them many other places.

My exhaust manifold is warped and leaks and causes that noise also.

Cometic...yup, and don't forget to get ARP head studs since you're already there...hell, just build it up, lol. I keeeed.

I'm going with an exhaust leak too. You would be blowing out smoke from the exhaust if your head gasket was "bad". Check your flexpipe, bolts that connect the sections, cat...just check the entire exhaust tract for tell tale signs of black soot escaping. I know I have an exhaust leak (albeit a tiny one) right at the flexpipe because it has scraped a few speed bumps out here.
