I see you've been a forum user since Dec 2007, So therefore im 99% sure you've tried getting one from Burton Power. If so I can assume you've also tried eBay and Ford directly?

Ford will do it. If you want to ebay it I'd recommend gaskets for classics

Yes exactly that, I presume your inlet has been modded to suit the cossie t/b?

plenty of cossie t/b gaskets on ebay.

Tbh with us I thought the inlet and throttle Body was a fiesta, I got the kit with the inlet and t/b built up. I'll get a Cossie one then.
