Are you sure you need a gasket. Two flat surfaces shouldn't need one. I don't run one there on mine. IF you must run one (some), then try the Rutland stove pipe sealant sold at the hardware store. I used it on an intermediate pipe to go in place of the turbo (between the DP and mani) and it worked fine. The problem with any of this stuff is that anything on the inside that doesn't stay between the flange surfaces goes to your cat- so use it sparingly. - rob
