intake gaskets 500efi
 

trying to find the part number for intake gaskets on gen 6 .500efi, they have no heat riser hole in center and they do have the upper bolt holes, i think i used felpro 17342 ?? last time what is everyone using for intake gaskets .

I used the Fel Pro #17342 on my last rebuild with no problems.

Good luck.

thanks for the reply, I could not remember for sure which ones I used, I sent the heads to the machine shop with the gaskets still stuck to the heads, and i started looking at the different part numbers and i could not remember if they were the 17340 or 17341 or 342. also have heard the 1211 felpros are pretty good.

went by the local speed shop, they had some felpro 1211 intake gaskets in stock, i picked up one pack. Went to my shop and set one on the cyl. head. it fits ok but does not come close to edge of port. they did not have any of the marine intake gaskets in stock. what other gaskets has anyone tried??

I checked around and most places have the 17340 sets on backorder. It looks like Rock Auto might have them, and they are almost half the price of Summit of Jegs. Take a look at www.rockauto.com. If all else fails, I have one brand new set that I can send out if you are in a bind.

Good luck,
Mike

hey thanks for the help, I was lucky and found some at CP performance, the guy at CP even put me on hold for a minute to go look at the gaskets for me, super cool people there
