Exhaust Gasket Crossover
Out of frustration with the local Honda Motorcycle dealer never having exhaust gaskets in stock and having to wait at least a week for them, I took a GL1000 header to NAPA and they found a Fel-Pro Gasket, in stock, that works just as well. The application is Honda 1.3, 1.5 and 1.6 litre 4 cylinder and 1976-84 Nissan 1.8 litre engines.
Fel-Pro part number 60567 or 12-1002.

online from NAPA $2.49 plus shipping, but site won't tell me how much shipping unless I login.

found them here for $1.94 each. I ordered 12 to dilute shipping cost and final shipped cost was $2.54 each. If you just needed (wanted)4, shipped cost jumps to $3.44 each. They accept major CC's and paypal.

Excellent, and a bit better than NAPA. I've been paying $3.67 each (no shipping charge tho') for the Fel-Pro alternative here. For a buck ninety-four I guess I'll order a couple of sets and keep them with the rest of my spares stash.

lately, I've been paying about $2.33 +/- .10, so I ain't bitchin' at all.
but I like the $1.94 price and I don't mind buying in bulk.
