I too have that POS speed daddy header, I talked to a lady that works there on the phone about it when I first got it and noticed the warpage of the flange, I think she said I could send it back if it didn't work but that was a long time ago so idk. Anyway long story short I've been through 3 gaskets trying to fix the leak and no luck, the latest thing I did was cut the flange where it was warped to allow it to flex and conform to the head, I think it worked or at least to the point I don't notice it any more. My advice would be call and see if they'll let you return it, or at least exchange it for another one that might be made right.

Yeah the speed dud will make a nice paper weight
Finding one with the flex on 1 and 6... Just had some guy on Facebook convince me it was the bees knees ... But at this point "functional" IS performance I've never experienced this jeep running anything but lean
