[Shotimes] Y-pipe to resonator ATX gasket?

[Jon Heese]

After many issues with the rear cat on my '95 Vulcan SLO, I'm very 
familiar with the concept of this gasket (the easiest way to unplug the 
clogged cat was from this flange right behind the y-pipe).  From Jason's 
description, and from my (fuzzy) memory of the ATX SHO y-pipe flange, it 
seems like the SLO gasket I used may X-ref to the SHO.

It's worth a shot: Ask to see the flexpipe gasket for a 1995 3.0L OHV 
(VIN U) Taurus.  I'd put a shiny nickel down that says it'll fit.  But 
maybe not. =)

Regards,
Jon Heese
