Thin copper pipe from HomoDepot. Cut one side straight through, roll out into a square, beat the ---- out of it w/ a hammer to widen it out, cut w/ dremel and tin snips, and finally coat w/ copper gasket spay. Done this twice to make a turbo/mani gasket and once for a DP gasket. Never leaked once. The can thing should work on as a DP gasket just coat w/ gasket spray. If you make a turbo/mani gasket w/ aluminum fist yourself.

yeah the pop can should work fine, very little pressure and its sandwhiched between flanges. As long as the flanges are pretty flat it should be fine. How do you think paper exhaust gaskets hold up? In some apps they work good...
