WTB oil pan gasket

[Slyclone]

Anyone have any VR oil pan gasket around or a simmilar quality? RPM sold me the last set about a year ago, not sure if they even stock them. I know they started producing own gasket sets.

The VR gasket was like no other I have seen. Very gummy and thick. someone is prone to have some thing laying around

no problem ive used the felpro with zero issues just make sure you use the bars and proper torque its alot less than you think

Re: WTB oil pan gasket

Not to be a pita but this gasket is far diffrent than the fel pro. felpro I think of that blue gakset material and cork.

Mike that looks like it as well. They are out there

Like I said above, you can still get the VR. I've sold both for over 10 years and have had no problem with either except for the color of the FelPro (can of black hi temp paint FTW). The FelPro is plenty thick and fits fine....but again, you can still get the VR, so get the one you want.

Is this a rear main seal gasket?.... I found it in a bag with some other gaskets. Wondering if installer/builder forgot it. Anyway Im trying to figure out if that is the correct rear seal I need. Either way I need it if I am about to rip it all down and get to the bottom of leak.

round one on right hand side appears to be the rear main seal adaptor gasket to block, rear main is a thick ring

Bzzzt. Round one on the right is a water pump rear cover gasket.

The one on the left is the rear seal adapter gasket. The old ones are a bitch to remove from the adapter or block., and are seldom damaged upon removal. Perhaps the builder put a skim of RTV on the old gasket before re-installation, and called it good?

I wondered that the round one was. I had one in my rear main gasket set too. I thought what in the world is that for. It sure doesn't fit on my rear main.

Sure it wasn't the middle one Phil?

Re: WTB oil pan gasket

I def need to locate middle one and possibly bottom. what I have must have been extra, or I have no idea where they came from. Whats it called again Seal Adapter
