AFR heads and CMI's - Gaskets?
 

I ran a FelPro 1411 with my iron heads. Any reason not to with the AFR's?

I wouldn't even consider a composite type gasket between an iron block and an aluminum head. You'd be much better off spending the money for Cometic gaskets. Plus if it ever has to come apart again you can reuse the Cometics several times with a light spray of copper coat.

Looks like the AFR’s re only 3$ more than the Felpro’s.

Probably an obvious answer. I had a big order being put together at Jegs and AFR’s gasket wasn’t available.

A Possible issue with those felpro gaskets is port size. They are listed as much smaller than the afr’s. You do not want any gasket material overlapping into the exhaust port of the cylinder heads.

If they don’t, then run’m :)

He was asking about exhaust gaskets. :)

I might have a single gasket up in the boat. I’ll need to look at it. Probably just easier to get the right gasket from AFR.

1412 are the big oval gaskets

1411 felpro works for me . AFR 315 heads & CMI E tops.

Call Edie Young, he has a multi layer gasket is is reusable. I ran them on the Merc racing heads and the AFR

A multi layer exhaust gasket? Interesting

fel pro 1411 1.940 round ports

fel pro 1412 2.130 round ports

I have had MLS exhaust gaskets for 7-8 years now and all is good. Oddly enough, I got them from NAPA because I was in a jam - just asked for their best and they were all metal MLS. I don't recall the brand but I do know that they were plenty big enough for the Stainless Marine manifolds that I had.

Much appreciated guys!
