Ive been following the board for a couple of years now. Great fun. Im currently looking for some old information posted here before. The over sized valves for SL6 cylinder head- where do I get them? The intake manifold gaskets by the aussie company- how do I find them? Can you really use a 440 harmonic balancer on these engines ? |

| Post subject: | Graphite gaskets from Mineral, Washington |
Here is another gasket company that builds graphite gaskets. These are 3 times thicker than the one I got out of Australia. My son used a set on his Camaro headers, problem solved! http://catalog.remflex.com/category_s/87.htm I am thinking of trying them since my Aussie Gasket blew out. I had a water leak on the rear upper right exhaust stud right after I installed the new Aussie gasket a couple of months ago. I pulled the stud and sealed it. However, it must have eroded part of the gasket on the fire wall side. So it is leaking exhaust now..... Any ideas on how to seal the Aussie graphite gasket? Will orange Hi-temp silicone work? or will it just break down? I was hoping I could get away with loosening the nuts and sliding the manifold back and squeezing something in where the gasket has eroded. Hoping that this will get my by till spring when I can install one the RemFlex gaskets. Seems like stuff like this happens only when it is snowing hard or freezing....! Thanks |

Seconded!!!  Yeah, we have a shop, but no heater pretty much rules it out.  P.S. I bought a gasket set from an older NAPPY jobber the other day, and it had a graphite gasket in it! It was as old as the hills, dust covered and all. I have never seen another one since. |
