Hi all,

Hoping to get out to pick up some exhaust gaskets on my lunch break today and I know that the ID is 275mm but I don't know the ED/bolt spacing... can anybody help out at short notice?

thanks!

lol oops sorry meant 75mm not to worry, went to local motormate/sprint type shops and they "don't have anything that big". So will have to go to an exhaust place anyway... thanks

its a standard bolt PCD anyway just a 2 bolt gasket. i know 2.25" through to 3" all have the same bolt PCD. thats why you can bolt on a 3" catback exhaust to the stock 2.25" cat. the holes are 105mm PCD.

I only heard this last night, when I went to pick up a split pipe... the guy told me it would bolt to the standard cat-back for now... that explains it. I held off doing anything about exhaust for so long thinking that I couldn't do anything unless I changed the whole system :S This is very useful info - exhausts are always being modified. Now to find a 105mm PCD gasket with 3"/275mm ID... probably exhaust shop.

yeah most exhaust shops should carry them, especially if they do performance exhausts. just ask for a 3" 2 bolt gasket.

Thanks Mike - that's actually the place I called a while ago about possibly getting a custom cat-back system made up. I'm going to go see them about it when I have the car back on the road.
