I bought one from a NAM member jimz68 last summer, just to have one as a spare. Dr O had put out a notice that this guy was selling the OBX donut gaskets. You might drop him a PM. It was $15 shipped.

I found a gasket that worked well but needed quite a lot of modification to the inside diameter (rotary file or sander). It was a Walker Exhaust part # 31555; has been in for around 6 months without problems.

Hi all,

Sorry for bringing back old thread. I'm finding a replacement for my OBX header gasket donut and I find this:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...7711&viewitem=

I'm not sure whether this will fit the OBX header or not, if it doesnt fit, what size should I search for... can anyone please advice?

Thank you very much

Oh thanks, that means its 2.5" ~ 3.2" . Actually I have emailed the seller but didn't get any reply from them. Any other feedback?

I dont want to buy the wrong donut which it will be wasted since I can't 'eat it' hehehe

Thank again
