looking for a couple of gaskets as I put my engine back together (’71
FI).<BR><BR>The first is the round paper gasket that seals the breather upper
and lower parts. To clean it out, I removed the special threaded sleeve,
and then separated the sheet metal and cast pieces. The gasket was
destroyed (and after 45 years replacement is due)<BR><BR>The second goes
between the case and the oil filler assembly.<BR><BR>Neither seem to be in the
standard kit. The first is a little tough to make from paper since it is
very small. The second is an easier shape but submerged so it has to be
done well.<BR><BR>Any known sources?<BR><BR>Thanks,<BR>-Phil</FONT></BLOCKQUOTE>

and the breather box. I've found that it seems to work better than the paper
gasket found in the full gasket kit.</FONT></DIV>

face=Arial>As for the fill tube gasket, I believe there's one in the kit, but I
also add some hi temp silicone (ultra copper) to both sides of it. I believe an
alternate gasket is the small carb gasket (sometimes found in the better gasket
kits), or a water pump gasket for a SB Chevy, that most parts stores
carry.</FONT></DIV>

silicone (red) main seal in it. I get it locally from Car Quest.</FONT></DIV>
