Does anybody have any ideas as to where I can procure a set of .030 W5 intake gaskets ? The ones Indy has listed for their 360-1's are all .060 and I'm out of ideas for anybody else.
Thanks,
Rick

believe we ended up at the parts store and bought some sheets of various thickness gasket material to ended up cutting our own. P..I..T..A!!

...by the way, interested in a small plenum MP W5 intake, or a Ebrock Super Victor W5 intake?

check with road hazard (superformance). he has some really good gasket material.

Sorry J, I already have a M1 large plenum on the shelf that I may market someday as well.

I did contact him about some gaskets and was told he isn't producing the W5 stuff at this time (which I expected)- but funny he didn't mention his gasket material....

I use .045 gaskets for my current indy set up, and just cut the ports on w-2 gaskets with a xacto knife. Its a lot easier than cutting out the whole gasket.

Thanks Raff!
A board member from our neighbouring province thinks he may have some and is checking for me, but if that doesn't pan out I'll give you a shout.

Thanks,
Rick
