Using TB Adaptors...

Using an adaptor plate from Stephan Max for a Pathfinder Throttle Body, What kinda gaskets do you use inbetween the adaptor plates ?? Im guessing there is some kinda gasket material I can buy and cut my own ???

Let me know what you guys are doing ?

Couldn't you just use a stock gasket (between manifold and plate) and a PF gasket (between plate and TB)? Or are their multiple plates and you want to know what to put between them?

Yea I have a 00' DEK Gasket going between the TB and First plate...then the second plate goes on, then a Pathy TB gasket then the Pathy TB.

I need something for between the two adaptor plates

If you have access to or know someone with a welder, I would say that's your best option. That is, unless, the plates need to stay 2 seperate pieces, in which case you need a different solution. I've heard of certain places selling gasket material that you can cut yourself for exhaust applications, but I'm entirely sure where to get it or if you could get something for the intake side of things.

EDIT: For example:

For NA I just used Permatex gasket-maker silicon, but with your SC, I'd be a little concerned.
Why not just ask Steve? Although I don't believe he ever went with the 00VI, I think he was using a PF TB with his SC setup (and likely an adapter).

Any auto parts store sells gasket material. It comes in a paper roll. Cut out what you need, it works perfectly.
