**ATTENTION: If you are using thin steel valve covers, do not use this fiberglass reinforced gasket. Use the silicone gasket RG-50068 instead.**
This may be the last gasket you will ever need to buy!
– There is a layer of fiberglass centered between 2 layers of silicone
that gives the material dimensional stability and higher
tensile strength.
– Therefore, this material is resistant to deterioration by weathering
or engine oil and remains flexible over the temperature range noted.
As a result, they provide excellent performance in high temperature
environments.
– The gaskets are made from aerospace mechanical grade silicone and
will not break down and deform or crack up like cork or neoprene
and leak.
– In addition, the gaskets will withstand operating temperatures
from -100 to 500 degrees F.
– Best of all, it is a reusable gasket.
Fits Models: FORD 351 Cleveland, 351 Modified and 400 CID.
