FPP made some years ago. It took me about a year to get them and when I did they were useless as they were incorrectly die cut and did not match up.

I just put two of them together with yellow 3M Weatherstrip glue. Been doing that both before and after the ones I bought from FPP.

Mr Gasket #202.

Regards,
Dennis

I much prefer the FPP to the Mr Gaskets. The port openings fit nicer. Somebody made them for FPP, just a matter of finding out who.

Would you like to make a trade? LOL

Don't look for the supplier or the die that was used to make the ones that I have.

I've also used Rocket brand too. I had one set of Rocket HR intake gaskets that I opened up and they crumbled into dust.

I've got some Ford ones too, but I consider them a collectors item.

Regards,
Dennis
