Default ExHAUST GASKETS.......Why can't I find them????

Looking for the gasket from an Aftermarket Header to my Aftermarket High Flow Cat.

No one has one. Searched Kragen, Autozone, Pep Boys, even online.

My gasket is old and was used on my Civic too. It's leaking and I'm installing my new header and Need another one.

CAN ANYONE HELP> Tell me where to buy them?

Sorry, But do you own a Prelude, Civic, Accord, Or Integra? Just wondering. If so look at your header to you cat. Brain Surgery Huh. Three bolt Gasket with one bolt offset farther than the rest. Do you need me to draw you a diagram.

Being in these forums I would hope you own a Honda.

Everyone Has the Three Bolt Round setup….For Domestics. I’m just going to use Gasket Sealer.

Thanks, I'll call them. I can't tell from the pics on there site.

But tomorrow I'm wrapping my new headers and installing them with sealer....Worse case it leaks. It's already leaking. I know someone who used this sealer on his Header to SC 5.0 motor on his mustang. Still no leaks. If it can do that it can definately seal my header to my cat.

Just get a 2" round gasket. trim one of the corners to allow the bolt to pass though and viola you're done. Sealer will work as well, but if you have any movement it's dead. It's just easier to buy the gaskets.

Mr. gasket makes some cut to fit gasket material, I think I bought mine at NAPA if I remember correctly.

The only issue with the Mr. Gasket cut outs is that they're not rated for exhaust temperatures (13-1400F). Whenever I looked I couldn't find anything that went over 1000F.
