As with my first reply to the user of this custom flange they should contact somebody to evaluate it correctly and not estimate anything. A flange this size with these pressures is no joke. However, I can tell you for sure that I wouldn't start shouting about RTJ gaskets without knowing even half of the information that I required beforehand.
