Re: Head Gasket information FELPRO 1041
I considered trying out the FelPro head gasket, but didn't like the .041 compressed thickness. I'm just going back with a new pair of Cometic .054" thick MLS gaskets. Things are tight enough in my combustion chamber already, without loosing another .013".
They do look like a wise choice if they aren't too thin for a particular application.
