12a exhaust gasket
I've got a 12a with an RB header on it, and blew a hole in the gasket. Apparently here in Canada no one stocks/carries a 12a gasket. Would a 13B one fit?

When I couldn't get one I just chopped a 13B gasket in half and trimmed to fit. Or you could order one from Mazdatrix: http://www.mazdatrix.com/getprice.as...m=13-889B-1480. Racing Beat has them too but they are $10 more.

Pretty much. Not too much to tell. Used some metal snips and made it fit.
