Default 3 bolt up-pipe gasket

Removed my headers(lateral supplied aftermarket) to day for re wrapping. Unfortunatly the 3 bolt Gasket for the up-pipe has fallen to bits>

Anyone know where to order one on line, Ive searched the likes of rcm,tsl,lateral,scoobyworld and ggr's site and cant find the gasget sold on its own

Thanks in advance

Sorry to resurect an old thread, but I am have trouble with my 3 bolt flange. Its blowing again for the 3rd time.

A quick look on net on the USA forums next suggests I use 2 gaskets at this joint.

Can anyone comment on this?

If you are having to run two gaskets with my slip jointed trick three bolt uppipe there is something far wrong. Start by checking both flange surfaces are flat. One of the reasons for the slip joint flange is to eliminate tension and compression in the system during heat cycling.
I am not aware of any header and trick uppipe combinations we have fitted fom new requiring replacement gaskets and two gaskets are a no no in fitting terms.
