Extreme Duty Lifetime .060" Annealed Copper Intake/Header Gasket
This all-new custom designed Newcomer Racing exclusive "Copper" Intake/Header gasket answers the call for many issues related to the 4.0 based Jeep head. First off we list this as a lifetime gasket that can be reused time and time again with just a simple gasket cleaning and reapplication of the provided High Temp Silicone. Secondly it does not have to be trimmed like all stock gaskets to fit the stock or highly ported versions and it serves as a great porting template for our in house port designs.
We offer three designs to fit your needs: Stock(87-99)/Edelbrock, TUPY(99-06), then our updated True round port design for our 1/2" Stainless Steel Custom Header flanges for your custom header builds. Simply choose your head style at the checkout. Our Stainless Steel ARP fastener/Winged Washer kit compliments these gaskets well! As noted this wrapped gasket will come in an indestructo box with a full tube of high temp silicone for many uses if needed.
***Use your supplied silicone on both copper gasket sides, around the intake and exhaust ports. We normally keep the intake port coverage on the thin side, depending on the intake flange condition. The exhaust ports we apply more and allow adequate time to cure, overnight is best but not necessary. As far as the fastener torque, YES, which means damn tight! and recheck after a good heat cycle.
