Everyone knows how the exhaust pipe is held on the flange on the engine? (the 2 springs) what should i use around the flange to make the pipe seal against it?

Most people either run billet aftermarket flanges, o rings and high temp RTV sealant thats max heat.

Thats the name of it.. It is a thick plyable substance that you tear off Of the sheet it comes on and form into an o-ring. It smushes into the crevices and is stronger than high temp silicone. If you want i can run out to the garage an see if i have any left and tell you who makes it and such..
