So, I did a search. No luck. I'm trying to replace the gasket between the merged header flange and the stinger. I've got a mass leak there and wasn't to swap it out. I'm trying to see if AutoZone has something that will work but I have no part number. It's killing me because they're all over the internet but none of the part numbers match their systems. Am I out of luck?

Thanks.

Not a part you can buy at a auto parts store.

Which brand header?

You could just make your own from a sheet of gasket material.

I thought so.

It's the stainless steel EMPI setup. I think I'm going to have to cut my own.

Thanks brother.

I know this is an 8 year old post but I need a small 3 bolt header flange gasket and I think it might be a Felpro 60575, which my local Autozone has in stock.
I'll report back.

This is why I had a V-band connection put on my merge, no gasket and no leaks.

I can confirm that the Fel-Pro 60575 gasket fits and is available from my local FLAPS. It is the collector gasket for a 1977-1987 BMW 6 series 2.7, 3.0 and 3.2 liter. The CB Performance gasket is much better, but this was on the shelf and I could get rid of that raspy exhaust leak!
