I have a 440 in my duster
right now I have a cork gasket then winsor tray and then another cork gasket but looks like its all wet and slightly leaking
is there a better way or gasket that will seal better.
also is it possible to remove the pan (7qt) if i remove the steering linkage? Looks like I should be able to just wanted everyones thoughts on this.

CORK works fine .. but there are BESTer ones out there.

To assure more leak-free ... make sure the pan-rail is flat and do NOT over-torque the bolts.

which ones are better im willing to buy what ever i need

I have herd the Milidon leak proff gasket is better but they cost way more. I have always used cork but Im very careful not to overtighten the bolts and tighten them evenly. Dont goop it up with lots of RTV/Silicone sealer cause then it will leak .

My 440 I used the cheap MP gaskets that came with the tray.Its been together 10 years and no leaks.I didnt use the MP tray but Milidon one.Corks seem to push out after a bit.I have 60 psi oil pressure all day also.Rocky

I just put a set of these in my 440 this weekend. They are of a "harder" composition than cork so in theory they won't "relax" or soften over time and then lose bolt torque. I used two corks ones previously and didn't have any problems either, but they did push out of the edges. I think the key is to use quality gaskets with sealer and proper torque on the bolts (200 inch pounds)

I stock and sell both the Superformance and Fel Pro gaskets for this. The Superformance MP 15 material is good if you have a thick railed pan, or a good strong rigid pan. I have found the FelPro race gaskets much better in dual ( windage tray) type applications especially with a stamped steel style pan, which doesnt like to be overtightened.
