You're essentially double gasketing the flange and it will leak again. All of the 'necks used to combine RTV and cork gaskets and it made me batshit crazy. A new OEM gasket would be a better choice.

^ I used the brand new hks gaskets that came with the exhaust when I did this. I haven't had any problems or issues with leaks.

Figured out there's a short in the wiring for my speakers. I'm gonna have to re-do the wiring to my speakers, and while I'm at it, I want to replace the speakers. Anyone know any good ones?

i have all brand new gaskets that are maybe like 5000 miles old and they leak.
i dont really care if they leak later. as long as its fixed for a little while.
its not really double gasketing i think, its filling in voids in the metal gasket.
whatevs. ill give it a try.

Mix one part welding with several parts Vband clamp kits, shake well, and you wont have any leaks after

full on track cars can take a lot more liberties with shit than a street car. bell bottom kits and crazy wheel fitment look cool sliding on a track, but when i want to drive to taco bus, im going to ruin all of that shit. so it just doesnt work for me. function over fashion.
