Exhaust manifold gaskets
 
1 Attachment(s)
I am looking for either 7 or 14 of these exhaust gaskets.

Attachment 67750

They may fit certain motorcycles as well as my 2 vintage cars (7 on each car).

Any leads will be gratefully received.

Thanks Rick.

Rick, We (old mechanics, when they were young) used to be able to buy copper asbestos (ha ha!) gaskets with just the big hole, you do the rest. I don't know if that is still a possibility or not? Maybe you can approach a gasket maker?
just some thoughts.

There are 3 options Rick

The ebay seller Vanguard spares at Lilydale .. His name is Kerslake I think . He has many parts for a wide range of old cars

Auto Surplus in Mitcham

Norm, who ran Spares galore in Upper Fern Tree Gully ( previously called Hillman spares ) - he now sells parts from home in The Dandenongs and he attends the odd swap meet . I have his ph. number somewhere . He seems to have parts for just about anything .He even had the unusual LEYRUB uni joints as used on the CS8 and Pu Morris Commercials and the Commer knocker trucks I believe

I have had Gaskets to Go make very large copper sandwich gaskets. Their price & delivery time were very good. They are located in Thailand but are safe to deal with. http://www.gasketstogo.com/

The head gasket shown is for an engine with a 12 1/2" bore. Cost was $49 & it was here in 2 weeks. I sent them measurements only & it fit perfectly.

All sorted, thanks Lynn, MikeK and Jack. I received a good lead through HMVF and found them in the UK.

Thanks all.
Rick.
