Does anyone know the correct thicknesses of the gaskets for the MP 90 Degree oil fiter mount?

reportedly the felpro "single' round gasket #70078 is a hair thicker than the single round gasket in the MP 3 piece kit. I have one (not sure which, MP or FP) that I will mike tomorrow. either would (should) work fine for you & a caveat is to clean the recessed block circular recess squeaky clean & to use some cement to hold the gasket in place as you raise the adapter up in place & to have it clocked correctly as you raise it so that you dont have to rotate it after "contact" is made. Leak issue I am assuming? EDIT Oh you needed the thickness of the thick cork one that goes on the big bolt inside the housing and the thin one that goes under the bolt head.

Looks like the thick cork gasket is about .175" thick. The P5249320 kit with all 3 pieces is still available.


If the results don't match the theory, change the theory.

I don`t know if you are having a sealing problem or not but make sure the bolt is not too long. I had one that came in the kit that was a little long. It was not allowing me to get the adapter tight enough even though the bolt felt plenty tight.

Don't know what the reason was behind your original question but if you have any about what you're receiving give me a call.

Thanks for your support STEFF thumbs
(and pittsburghracer smile )

p.s...... if you need to retain the large gasket in the block don't use any adhesives, a couple dabs of grease would do you right.

My Son's Duster was leaking and we didnt want to wait a few days for a new gasket set to be mail ordered from anyone. So, we were just going to cut one out of gasket material. But, luckily Marsh Perf. had some in stock and I was near them today. So, I stopped by and got one. It all worked out. I also picked up a few sets of your carb gaskets too.
