Hard to find parts

There is nothing worse then trying to do stuff on your car and not being able to find what you need local. This always happens to me with spark plugs and 3 inch exhaust gaskets.

I decided to fix this situation. From know on i will keep a bunch of 8 plugs and 3 inch exhaust gaskets at my house. If you guys are doing work and end up needing this stuff let me know.

This is not a for sale thread, this is just to let you guys know that if you need help i got your backs. I will not be making any profit off of this deal, just making my money back so i can stay in stock.

Yeah, those exhaust gaskets are a *****... Why can't they just use a standard 3 bolt flange????? I'm going to try to reuse the ones I have for the DP though.
