Nice, looks neat. I still have my Gizzmo one in the cupboard, ready to install it when the motor comes out again.

Sorry for the off topic, Gary.

The car is actually still for sale, and I will repost it for sale in a little under a month if the car I want is still for sale. Basically the car will be for sale until the car I want to buy is sold - after that I will keep it until I find something else worthwhile to replace it with.

The gasket is made from Phenolic, it will act as a heat barrier and prevent heat from soaking into intake manifold and in turn meant to keep air cooler.
