Anyone know where I can get one cheap? Also the seal things that go on the motor side for the water holse. Would rvt or whatever work for the water seals?

 

i got mine from mazda for like $10, the coolant passage o rings can be gotten at the plumbing section of the hardware store.

 

I got one at autozone, for about $7, and it had the o-rings in the package.

 

yea autozone is great...i paid like $8 for mine

 

Autozone Ftw!!!

 

Personal preference is to use the stock gasket with a THIN film of permatex hi-temp copper rtv on both sides.
I find this helps seal the intake better than the stock gasket alone.

I have used only the rtv, but you have to be careful applying it or you'll use too much and pieces could come free on the inside and get into your engine.
