One of the BEST best replacement parts

These things hold their shape better than others. Although they have the flexibility / NOT rigid / the fact that they have a core they are much easier to assemble. While you should still use a sealant/gasket tool to attach them when installed on the valve covers, they are better made than others I've used over the years.

Pros
  • Gaskets
Cons
  • Slightly Crumpled

85 c10 SBC won't fit

Don't worry I've decided to save a few bucks and try something new. The holes in the gaskets didn't line up with the valve cover studs, the alignment problem was so bad I couldn't use them. I ran to the parts store and bought a kit Fel-Pro vs 12869 Tr. Fel-pro also has a steel insert that fits and works like a charm. They're almost certainly cheaper at Revain than at the parts store.

Pros
  • Replacement parts
Cons
  • Hard to tell

Advantage of the steel core?

Bought for their steel core to keep their shape for easy installation. They arrived in a very large box, the pads with a cardboard sleeve are about 1/2 inch thick, the box is 6 inches deep. Despite all care, they were clogged with spacers, didn't stay straight, both had many small bends that I had to straighten (the steel core is very soft). I expected the steel core to be very similar to a cylinder head gasket that would not bend or deform easily. Maybe it should be, I tried them to see how…

Pros
  • Automotive
Cons
  • Slightly torn
