3" Downpipe gasket????

I've searched the internet only to get confused. I'm trying to figure which type of gasket could I use for my 3" downpipe? Would any 3" 2 bolt gasket work for my PA Ultra or is it a specific one to use? Thanks
 


I was thinking that gasket may not hold up after being removed so I was going to have one on hand just in case
 


Stock gaskets are very durable metal. Ive been able to reuse them many times on my car that has near 160K on it.
 
Oh OK thanks. It wouldn't hurt to use some rtv copper would it, because there is some sputtering I here under the car in the front on cold starts. Already replaced cat so...
 
i would only use the copper RTV, OR the gasket.. typically not both. 3 bolt flange on my headers only has orange RTV and doesn't leak.
 
when i took mine stock manifolds off all the metal gaskets were like new, 230,000 on em. re used the manifold to head gaskets, not a leak to be heard. even took the front header off and back on, still no leaks.

Knock on wood the next time you drive the Beagle you will have a exhaust leak!
 
not a chance. its all band clamped, front to back, as every slip join has blown apart at least once. single muffler stock cat back dont like 10 psi of boost lol
