front cover gasket
 

Is there a metal alternative for our front covers ?

thanks

There must be, I just disasembled an engine with a metal front cover gasket

Yes, for the third gen there is a metal front cover gasket. We sell then for 26.00 plus shipping if you need one pm me. Just sold two to Daleclark, if you want a reference.

Yep, got 'em quick too - thanks, Glen!

I HIGHLY recommend the metal front cover gasket. Solves a lot of the problems of the front cover design - eliminates the O-ring, no need to trim the bottom of the gasket, much better sealing, you name it.

I consider this a must if you're putting an engine together.

Agreed.

Hey dale you don't happen to have a picture of it do you? I ordered an RX8 front cover gasket from Ray at Malloy, but it doesn't look like the right gasket. The bottom doesn't seem to line up.
Thanks

This is the metal front cover gasket we have, isnt it just :titty:

Thanks Tom.

Thats way different than what Ray sent me. I may need one from you guys here in the next couple days. I need to contact Ray first though to see if he can swap it out.
