Felpro Vortec intake gaskets #

[bigtime]

Anybody have a Felpro intake gasket number? Don't send me to the search, been there. Although i may not be using it properly.

there are 2 that have been used.

1268 and 1203. I am personally using the 1268, but most people tend to use the 1203. The 1268 is thicker, but the 1203 has little rubber trim around the port holes.

FWIW, I sell the 1203 for $19.99 a set for anyone interested.

I'm just so observant. Those gaskets are for 23 degree bolt pattern.
I'm looking for a straight vortec intake gasket number. I guess I will buy GM's

i'm guessing you're talking about the 4 vertical bolt holes on vortecs.

gm's are good. they are black plastic with a rubber o-ring type seal. even has alignment pins that snap in on the head so they dont move around when setting the intake down.

waller claimed a while ago the 1268's tend to leak coolant easier than the 1203. Mine haven't leaked in the whopping 200 miles i've put on it, but i'm sure hes used a few more gaskets than me.

If you are referring to this picture:

it was fake/staged. I just drilled into some metal w/ a filter under it to catch the shards and then poured some oil through it. :lol:
