Default Quick help please!!!

Just installed my Mac O/R Prochamber but it is leaking on the passenger side where it bolts to the stock headers.

I need a new gasket. Is this the exhaust flange gasket?? Can I get this at any auto parts store??

most stores should carry the gasket. it will run you about 8 bucks. if you didnt replace the driver side as well you should just to be sure. flange exhaust gasket i believe is what youre looking for. and the stock mustang doesnt have headers, it has exhaust manifolds (shorties basically)

LOL..yeah I know. Headers is just shorter to type than exhaust manifold.

I went to Ford and got one for $9.50 and it fixed the leak.

Driver side doesn't usually have a gasket, it has the bevelled fitting on it and stays together by pressure of the bolts, if you know what I'm saying

Good that you found it, all the exhaust shops around here said that that specific gasket does not exist! Fantastic because I had the burnt out one right in my hand.

sorry to bring up an old thread but i just got myo/r prochamber. one of the flanges is welded on (with gasket), the other loose.im talking aboutthe pipes, not the actual box or chamber. anyhow, so i need to get two different gaskets? i hear not to use the gasket included with the kit. Seems alot of people are getting this exhaust.if anybody couldpost thetools and gaskets needed for install that would rock! i have the one part number from above XR3ZZ9450AA, thanks!
