i bought a kakimoto exhaust the other week off knightrider and it didn't come with a gasket. I used exhaust cement but it isn't holding and i need a gasket, i can't find one any where local so i thought i would ask here see if any one has one available. i think the exhaust is 2.75"

Ask Michel Lane nicely

XS power do them but mine blew in two weeks!

Failing that get some copper sheet and punch one out...o er missus:blonde:

Good luck

I've got no gaskets on my Kakimoto. It came with my car and it was a crap fit and couldn't clear the lowest of speed bumps or get into my drive so myself and a steel fabricator removed it, chopped it up and refitted it perfectly. All the faces were ground flat for a perfect seal. No gasket, exhaust paste or anyting else required.

best thing for exhausts is silicon! We used as a desperate measure at a race meeting on a proper race car (v6 touring coupe) . It lasted the whole season. We have used it ever since and the car has won British champion ship now for 2 years running! Only thing is that for the first 10 miles you will get a nasty grey smelly smoke which makes it look like your engines seen better days.
