    Any vendors sell aftermarket mani gaskets out there somewhere? I would like to get rid of the stock one with the curved heat shield thingy for a flush one.

    OEM is best.....Don't waste your time, effort or money trying to swap it out....If you're swapping EM still stay with OEM

    I vote OEM as well. Way better than any flush one you could get. I have seen a lot of cars where they have just used that copper exhaust gasket maker stuff.

    OEM. Don't cheap out on gaskets or else you'll end up doing fun things twice.
