    7&1/4 housing gaskets

    exactly what I needed, thank you! so it looks like they sold me the thin inner seal(s) which I am going to assume are correct for the 7&1/4 and the thicker seal(s) which look correct for an 8&3/4. OK I will either take em back or save em for the unfinished 8&3/4. thank you again brother

    7&1/4 8&3/4 gasket interchange Q

    I stand corrected. I just came back from the shop & I checked my BBP 7&1/4 & it DOES have 5 studs. The housing dia is smaller & that will require a smaller inner seal than the one that fits the 8&3/4

    7&1/4 8&3/4 gasket interchange Q

    it turns out that the 55032 is a 5 hole gasket & I couldn't find the 13900. Now does the 7&1/4 use foam on each side of the b plate or foam/metal like the 8&3/4 does? and I do have a set of hole punchs
