six pack carb base gaskets- where to get the good ones - 08/21/16 04:10 PM

I forgot to buy them so I got online and it seems nobody carries them anymore? I see Jegs sells the grey ones but I thought those were too thin?

Superformance gaskets are what you want. Mancini's and some others carry the line.

Base gaskets

Good luck! up

I saw those on Mancini's site but wasn't sure if they were specific to the 6 barrel carbs. Any idea how thick they are? I've always used the MP paper gaskets

Thickness matters and whatever you use make sure the carb base is flat,90% have the corners pulled down from over tightening.

I thought this was the go to kit with the good base gaskets?

If your carbs and manifold are flat, the thicker gasket will have a better chance of leaking with time.

I believe some are under the impression a thick gasket is better, but in reality are compensating for another issue.

I've used the thin one Scott sends with rebuilds and have no issues

I ended up getting the ones from Superformance. Wow! Great, friendly customer service, quick shipping, and a great looking thick gasket!
