Hey guys if I have some gasket paper can I make a gasket for the inlet elbow? I took mine off and now its leaking and I thought maybe I could make one?

yeah, you can do.. A very thin smear of instant gasket on both sides won't hurt but buying the correct gasket is certainly the better option
Welding and fabrication projects undertaken, contact me for more information.

Lol I would have, had they been open! Like a numpty I went down 30mins late!! Bell end ain't I, said on Google it was open til 5... But not parts counter so....I made my own and did it Sunday/yesterday...so far no boost leaks bit they will appear in time. One of the studs on inlet manifold is shite, gotta get a helicoil kit soon Sad can't believe I've never owned a set.
I mean *bet, bloody phone! I hate tapatalk too
Besides, I couldn't find gasket paper from any of my locals that were open so I used copper silicon and a divider from a folder Smile pikey cheap...'cept the silicon Big Grin
