Is this a good product?
Hi Gang,
Getting ready to do some exhaust repairs on my '88 and wondered if this was a good deal.
Title: "SCE Pro Copper Exhaust Manifold Gasket for Mazda RX7"
http://compare.ebay.com/like/1805369...=263602_263632
It's a fraction of the gasket from Mazdatrix (or Mazda itself for that mattter). Is this a too good to be true? Or a good deal
THX

If it's too good to be true...................
I do not know how well cooper would hold up the rotary engines exhaust temps. I saw on the forum the other day a failed exhaust gasket that was ceramic coated.
You could be onto something though, if so that's a good find. Someone with some knowledge chime in please.

failed i'm sure. i have used copper for the manifold to turbo gasket and it doesn't work too well.
even though i pick up plugs regularly also, they now are special order for even the most common parts for these cars. most of the time i order **** online as to not support the stores that don't support the cars. bout the only thing you can find is belts and hoses still in stock at most chain stores.

I have an exhaust manifold to engine gasket. Works great. Just don't try to get them to make you anything custom. I got boned on that, lost some gaskets, months of my life, money and never saw a product they were making custom for me.

I'm not surprised the manifold to turbo gasket would fail. That's a lot of heat over a very small surface area. Perhaps the engine to manifold will fair better.
I went ahead and ordered one from them last weekend. They e-mailed me yesterday asking what the part number was. Durf. Thinking they should know that... but whatever, we'll see how long it lasts if it ever gets here.
