Default Exhaust Leak

When I replaced my stock h-pipe with my bbk o/r x, I should have also replaced the the gasket that goes from the passenger side header to the x-pipe. It had a slight crack and wasn't noticeable. In the last couple of days it has gotten worst. So it's getting replaced.

Here's the one I'm buying this weekend:

Gasket

Let me know your opinions if I should buy this one or go to Ford. Afterall, it's just a gasket.

Go with the ford gasket. Its reliable and you know it will fit with no problems at all.

Yeah, a month and a half later.

I'm planning on some MILs or a very cheap diablo tuner. But no money now.
