Review on Mr Gasket 5980 Triangle Collector by Brent Dietrich

Revainrating 1 out of 5

The severed manifold and gasket fell into pieces.

Waste of money! Not durable and cannot be reused. I used them on a set of short headers and when I removed the header the graphite material split into several pieces and separated from the steel mesh core. Holley's (MrGasket's parent company) website lists the pad as reusable. Good luck with it. For the same money you can buy a set of copper gaskets under your own brand. They can handle a set of long pipe heads if they're not too hot, but I'll never buy them again. I also like that they are listed as reusable but only have a 90 day guarantee. Most buyers don't even install them for 90 days, and very few reject the distributor during that time, making the warranty virtually worthless. For reference only, the car has less than 5,000 miles and this is the second set. collector seals. The other brand at least had a real guarantee and honored it. Mr. Gasket used to be a name to trust. Shame on you, Holly.

Pros
  • Graphite impregnated liner for excellent heat resistance
Cons
  • Expensive
