1987 Mustang need part # for turbo to downpipe gasket

does anyone know what the part # for the turbo to downpipe gasket is or where to get one? my local parts places dont even have it listed.

There isn't one. It's a ball and socket connection.

i running ATR downpipe and its supposed to use a gasket but i cant find one i guess im gonna have to make one

Does the downpipe have a flange for a gasket? Doesn't make alot of sense to me. The turbo elbow is the ball part that b chandler referred to. Most downpipes I've seen have the socket end that mates to the ball end.

i looked around the turbo elbow that you are talking about....there isnt one on my car ?!? the down pipe bolts directly to the turbo where the elbow would be.so i need a gasket for where the elbow would bolt up,right?

So the downpipe you're talking about is not held up by just two bolts, but rather a half dozen or so and if you remove it you can see the turbine?

If so, you don't need a gasket.
