He sent me some valve cover gasket to sample(small block)... I've only had a change to look at them, and from what I see I like the material... I dont know about the thickness as of yet since I havent put them on my engine.... he was talking(I believe) of making a version with a metal frame (like the MP version with the silicone over metal) but I'm not sure. When I get home from vacation I will put them on a engine and check out a few different valve covers that I have.... wish I had some stamped alum ones also for further testing

I will be stocking his gaskets soon, Very nice quality and he knows what he is selling.
I am placing my stock order and will have an announcement when they arrive. I believe another member on here will have them also.
Finally what I believe are some alternatives to some old design gaskets which we have all been forced to deal with. More to follow shortly.

Same here. We've been using them, selling them and including them in our girdle kits for the last two or three years. Excellent product.

I've seen a couple samples of Greg's gaskets and they are nice. 
Not only that, He is graciously supplying the gaskets for my build 
I'm not sure if he is set up to sell direct to the public but he was saying he was going to try and get out to the track more and sell there.
He did say a few of the motor builders on here had them in stock though.

MR P BODY I'm glad you like the material, the thickness should be no problem @ .050" thick.
Those valve cover gaskets were not designed for stamped covers only cast or fabbed covers. Don't want you to have a potential leak 
If I produce them with a steel core they will be faced on both sides with the same material and probably cost $$$  They won't be like the MP ones.
The pic below uses my valve cover gaskets WITHOUT a Steel Core and last him ALL season without a weep!

Anyone know if the w2 gaskets will fit indy 230cc oval port heads also?
I really like the sealant around the port to create a good pinch point with running upwards of 25-30 psi of boost through them.

Is there any chance that you are going to do some W5 gaskets?????
The W-2 and W-5 take the same gasket correct?

My oval port intake gaskets measure 2.085" tall x 1.450" wide if that helps.
You small block guys sure do have enough head choices out there

The 230's are 2.125 x 1.375
Looks like they would work great.
