I am looking for FE pan gaskets made of rubber. Have used cork and paper from FEl Pro, but am have a problem with leakage when pan is full of oil on dry sump engine and not running. Any help is appreciated. Bart

I don't know who makes them now but I tried then back in the stone ages and didn't like them as if a little too much torque they would squish out at the bolt areas and seep.Your call of course.

Bart, couldn't find one. I used the "Right Stuff" and it

doesn't leak. Ran a 3/8" bead and when it was almost set snugged it up. Left it for a day and tightened it down and it dosn't leak. RW

getting you pan off with Right Stuff. I did that with a C6 pan and ruined it removing it. I love the stuff!

Rubber pan gaskets

Didn't work for me. Lealed like a seive. My best luckis with Felpro that looks like recycled composite with hytack following instructions on the hytack. I also torque the pan and valve cover gaskets to factory torque, extra work but works well, RWJ
