For our turbo cars yes Fel-Pro gaskets are horrible, but don't blame the
company, for big blocks people swear by them and are one of the best gaskets
to get. Like all companies they make good products as well as bad ones. Just
ask any Hemi or 440 owner what gasket they prefer.

I haven't had the need to replace a head gasket yet on my Turbo Dodge but I've
used nothing but Fel Pro's on my 340 Duster for years. Not one single problem.
Why would they work so well on V8s and so poorly on turbo cars?
I think I would recalibrate or get a different computer and if all else
fails paint the valve white.

i am running a fel pro 9296PT with steel shim built right into it on the
block side on my o ringed 2.2 T ll . i used spray hylomar on both sides of the
gasket and used ARP head bolts. i feel this gasket is good for the o ringed
applications. i believe i was recommended this gasket by Gary
The best gasket to get is a multi-layer steel (MLS a.k.a. cometic head
gasket). Its the ultimate in durability. Lots of engines' designs are not
engineered to properly utilize an MLS gasket reliably and i'm sure when our 2.2
/ 2.5's were developed, and MLS gasket was not taken into

to spend some money though. i had to get a 1/2 fan belt, some
Hi everyone,
A quick question about flywheels both standard and automatic. I know that
there are 6 bolt and 8 bolt cranks and flywheels. Do 2.2's and 2.5's

Thanks

Carroll Shelby Wheels sold several different kinds of wheels, many of

Strange problem here... My Daytona is popping up an error 13. Map
sensor problem. Seems to be BARO related, as I put a meter on the baro
solenoid, and it never dips. Seems like the problem happens right when
the computer would be checking the baro. Start it up, run for a
minute, maybe less, and
These are not very easy to find. I have one and have been pondering
selling it. shoot me an email if you are interested

Ok, one more T1 to T2 conversion question. What throttle cable should I
use on my 85 SC when doing my conversion? Do I need a GLHS cable, or
will a Daytona or similar cable work? Thanks!

I used a Daytona cable on my '83 SC. Worked fine. I had a friend that
used a GLHS cable on her car and the cable (not the sheething) was WAY
too long. Luckily I tracked down a throttle bracket from a 2piece TB,
and it spaced the cable farther (the proper distance) from the
throttle. :)

I have used the Felpro gaskets on my turbo minivan and my 86 Glhs turbo that
is also O ringed. Because of the metal backing it works really well with O
rings. It also has cross drilled holes too wich my Omni has . It may not be as
strong as the COMETIC or what ever it's called gasket , but I
