Looking good, I was told to make sure the area is good and flat where the intake and exhaust go to the head, I had mine checked yesterday and all is good Use a Aussie, or Remflex exhaust/intake gasket and not this felpro gasket.
to assure a good seal , and no sealer on these gasket's


This is the Fel-pro gasket that I was told not to use, 10hft lbs and no more in the nuts.

Sorry Mike so long to get back to ya.....
Whats wrong with the felpro???
Used one on sons 69 & doin fine 2 years now!
Also that is the one I already have to go on. I wouldn't think it would be a problem if I install clean & right. Just watch procedures of tightening order & torqes. Sides, anythings an improvement over 1/8" gap between the manifold plate!!! LOL!!
I'll probibly have to try my luck with what I have. No $ for better & going to super 6 for summer, hopefully.
Anyway, what's the poop on the bad felpro press? Haven't heard......8)
