head gasket

Fel-Pro 'Perma-Torque' gaskets do not require a 'sealant' to be applied to the gasket.

Read the 'Fel-Pro' web site on 'pre-application' for Head Gaskets. They do 'not'
recommend any sealer to be applied to their Perma-Torque Gaskets.

Just that the Cylinder Head and Block Deck surface are clean, and free of oil.

A couple of spray shots of 'Brake-Kleen' will remove any surface oil.

I used these gaskets on my 318. They have yet to give me a problem after maybe 6,000 miles of daily driving with the occasional WOT. I made sure my deck surface was nice and clean with some brake cleaner and ran em.
