hi, im new here to the forum, but im having a problem..... I bought new headers, bbk shorties, for my car and i cant get the passenger side exhaust flange to stop leaking [:@], and its a decent amount of exhaust escaping through there.... I've tightned the hell out ofit and still no luck.....my question is can i buy a gasket like this and install it, there wasnt one when i removed it..... thanks!

your issue may lie in the fact the ball and socket end on the bbk headers are designed for a larger diameter h-pipe..ie 2 1/2 and if you are trying to use the stock cat set up there may be a mis alignment issue due to manufactorer spec diffs in tolerances..buy a matching h-pipe and you'll be fine

i do have an off road h pipe.... i don't know what brand it was on it when i purchased the car... but on my driver side i have no problems at all.... everything seems to line up, its just leaking on the one side of the flange.... thats y i was thinking gasket, if it'd work

I had the same problems getting my 2.25 inch h pipe to fit up with my aftermarket shorties. u need to loosen those bolts up and just muscle it into place, its a pain in the *** and i ended up using a floorjack to get the help I needed.
