weird exhaust gaskets

#1 PostAuthor: mick znone » Tue Feb 24, 2009 6:33 pm

hello all, ive just bought some exhaust gaskets, they are different to any ive used before. previous gaskets were hollow cylindrical copper tubes, these are open copper filled with some grey stuff, does this make any sense to anyone? dont want to take exhausts off then not be able to replace them.

They will do the same job, personally I prefer them, more usually used on Yams

thanks guys :) and thanks for the offer Ted, think i will go with this strange new type of gasket, as it seems they are a recognised gasket, thanks for the offer. if they prove to be rubbish and i cant sorce a supply of the old type, i may drop you a line in the future, if thats ok Ted? :)
