Exhaust and manifold gaskets

Post by KeithB » Sun Apr 15, 2012 6:42 pm

Just picked up a nice shiny manifold, downpipes, decat and a mongoose system for 150 including an ebay long intake thrown in.
Wheres the best place to get a set of new gaskets? just that and adding a hanger to the backbox to sort before it all gets fitted.

what bore is the pipework? probably stock gaskets for engine-manifold and manifold-downpipe but if the decat back is 2.5 then you might have to make your own like i have :x
