Richard B Posted April 23, 2011 Share Posted April 23, 2011 Any preferences on these good / bad. I know they are non OE but they were fitted to the TR7. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StagNL Posted April 23, 2011 Share Posted April 23, 2011 It may depend on the situation. When I had the original manifolds installed I never used gaskets, just a very thin smear of joint paste I think. Since fitting tubulars I decided to fit gaskets - the faces didn't look 100% straight and flat. They may well have been 100% but my eye told brain to fit gaskets just to make sure.Julian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andyr Posted April 23, 2011 Share Posted April 23, 2011 I fitted some TR7 ones when reassembling mine last year - not original, but it seemed like the right thing to do (and didn't cost much!).......Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mad cyclist Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 if the faces are clean and they are tourqed down correctly they were not designed for gaskets, 40 years later...its probably belt and braces ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
