VALVE COVER GASKETS

               for

CHEVROLET –  SMALL BLOCK V/8

Made of:

This may be the last gasket you will ever need to buy! 

–   Basically, the gaskets have a layer of fiberglass that is centered

    between 2 layers of silicone which allows the material to

    maintains its original dimensions when subjected to changes in

    temperature and humidity.   

    As a result, it gives the material dimensional stability and

    has a higher tensile strength.      

    This is the absolute most stress that a material can resist while

     being pulled or stretched. 

–    Not only is the material resistant to deterioration by weathering

     and engine oil but also withstands temperatures and remains

     flexible over the temperature range of  -100 to 500 degrees F.

–    Additionally, the gaskets are made from aerospace mechanical 

     grade silicone and will not break down and deform or crack up

     like cork or neoprene.  Consequently, this is one tough gasket. 

  –   Finally, this is a reusable gasket
