Description of πŸ”§ Enhanced Remflex 2042 Exhaust Gasket" or "Optimized Remflex 2042 Exhaust Gasket

1-7/16 inch width x 1-716 inch height Mid-sized D Shaped Port; Chevy V8 - LT1 ('92-'95),LT4 ('96) LT1 Corvette ('92-'96), Mid-Sized D Port, Header Applications, 2/Set. Heating and cooling of the exhaust system causes header and manifold flanges to warp resulting in gaps between the head and header which Remflex exhaust gaskets seal completely due to the thickness and compressibility of the 100 percent flexible graphite. Remflex exhaust gaskets come in a standard 1/8 inch thickness and are designed to crush 50 percent allowing them to fill any pits or gaps in the flange surface up to 1/16 inch. The aluminum cylinder head and steel header or manifold combination are configurations that readily cause gap issues in the mating flanges due to contraction and expansion of the dissimilar materials; Remflex exhaust gaskets fill those gaps permanently. There are no rubber binders or composite materials in Remflex exhaust gaskets so they will not shrink or harden due to time or temperature eliminating the need to go back and continually retighten your flange bolts.

Horrible Gasket, Don't Waste Money

This gasket was a complete waste of money for my automotive repair. While it did fit, it didn't seal properly and resulted in a significant exhaust leak. The only positive was that it arrived quickly. Overall, I would not recommend this product to anyone in the automotive industry.

Pros
  • Durable and long-lasting for better performance
Cons
  • More expensive than traditional gaskets

1996 Chevy Impala SS

I've used them on my 96 impala ss as I mean tri y gen 2 header installed everyone recommended these particular gaskets on the forum and they worked perfectly as everyone said definitely one of the best graphite gaskets you can buy!

Pros
  • Remflex exhaust gaskets have no rubber binders or composites so they don't shrink or harden over time or temperature so the flange bolts don't have to be constantly tightened
Cons
  • Not sure
