Nevermind, I see. you just unscrew the whole 02 sensor from the stock exhaust and screw it on the shortys...the dumbass ripped off the wires from the shortys instead of unscrewing the whole 02 sensor for the pipes

Yeah the little metal rings that mount underneath exhaust flanges. They are the actual gasket.

No gaskets came with the system, thought that was kind've candya$$ personally. The V&H directions simply stated "Check exhaust port gasket condition".

Yeah, they have officially changed their name as of about 2-3 months ago.

Sadly I've had the same kind've garbage service from Cape Fear/Fort Bragg. Only reason I buy my parts from them is I work right around the corner from them.
