Never a good idea to use sealant on any part of the exhaust system upstream from the cat - any residue squeezed out of the joint could go into th ehoneycomb and that won't do it any good.

Gaskets are the way forward

Never even thought of that!

As my old tradesman said to me, "Its just as easy to do a job right as it is to do it wrong"
