For the gasket between the manifold and the header you can use a factory exhaust gasket. You may even re use your original gasket on the car. As for bolts I sell Stage 8 locking bolts or you can usually re use the original manifold bolts.

Between the collecter and the turn around pipe go to a local peformance shop and get a Mr Gasket Ultra seal part number 5971 which is a 3" collector gasket. To bolt them together you can go to any hardware store and get 3/8 bolts and nuts with lock washers 1 1/2" long


Good luck

For collector gaskets, I really like the copper or aluminum items you can get from Summitt; they won't blow out and can be re-used. Believe it or not, the high temp copper RTV holds up to heat surprisingly well and a thin coat on teh metal gaskets has served me well on other cars.
