Stainless Exhaust Gaskets

Hi Guys I'm getting Stainless exhaust gaskets cut, if you want a set let me know its R80

Good grade stainless 1.6mm thick gaskets, you won't be blowing gaskets ever again.

You guys will never listen, USE BOSTIK GASKET WITH NO GASKET, JUST FACE ON FACE, or firegum as VC just did.

2 sets is already in the making... I've done the face on face thing before, worked fine, till a turbo blade got damage because a piece of firegum broke off.

if its all 6 gaskets then count me in. 4 exhaust ones, two different turbo ones. if you need the drawings for the gaskets i've got some good ones!!!

perhaps i should take two sets!!!

and if i send the drawings in for the others???

i think they can be used on a cnc machine.

Ok I can get the others made as well

Head side: R20 a port = R80 a set
Turbo top : square one: R22
Turbo exhaust side: R35

So far got 4 sets of the Exhaust ports

VeeCee up for the others?

Prices seems a bit steep, maybe its on the amount of material they use ??

How air tight is a stainless steel gasket? Don't you still have to put some sealant like firegum? If so, won't that still "blow"?

LOL - you make us blush...

yes - that spanjaard copper gasket spray works fine!!! you cover the gaskets in the sticky copper paint stuff, and i seals the small imperfections!

Window your in luck my man... They made 7 sets for me I asked for 4...

Yip still got 3 more...

Nah no fire gum... just a little gasket maker on each side to make it air tight, doesn't need to be the high heat stuff red / gray RTV will work fine, or that copper gasket stuff
