Guy, he said that he was making a die to press a lip into the 3 bolt gaskets, but the four hole header gaskets were up to us.

The Remflex stuff is really good. We can get two sets out of a single 6" x 24" sheet (AUD$97.00. Could speak with Ultimate to find out what they'd charge to laser cut them for us.

PS. Thanks Dean. So the Stag Jointing Compound handles header temps with no issues?

ive found it good to use but its a bit messy if you try to use to much . ive used it on turbo to manifold flanges and they havent leaked i am not sure of the temp rating i will see if i can find the tube out in the shed and confirm it .

cheers dean
