my pipes where so tight to get on that i couldn't get gaskets in there if i tried.

Do you think that might be a problem?

Sure there wasnt an old gasket already in there? Just all blackened and moulded into shape? And probably stuck hard onto the headers!

Hi Guys, sorry for the late reply, didnt get an email, lol

Anyway the old gasket was shot, the clamp had broke aswell so down to Fowlers today and picked up a new gasket, cleaned up the joints and collector pipe refitted all ok, then proceeded onto to remounting the MIG High Level cans which was what I was doing first of all, lol

Thanks for the help

slip joint?

my micron link pipes are a dead tight fit.. im talking super tight.. like trying to put a marshmallow in a mouses ear....
i have no gaskets between the link pipes n the rest of the system.

The joins from the migs to the collector pipes are a slip joint as mike says, its from the collector to the down pipe at the rear cylinder that has the gasket, pretty much the same as my original cans had.
