Nutter Posted August 30, 2004 Posted August 30, 2004 Can anyone help? On the rollers tomorrow, just giving the last checks and F***. Blown exhaust manifold gasket. Has anyone out there in the Worcestershire area got a spare set for a x flow? Willing to travel with beer tokens waiting! Quote
Thrustyjust Posted August 30, 2004 Posted August 30, 2004 you could get the standard ford ones.Should be in stock,as they are the same as the Valencia KA engine.If you use the large bore version for a cooking x flow,then just gently cut them a bit bigger and then order some large bore ones from Burtons (2 sets) Quote
Blatman Posted August 30, 2004 Posted August 30, 2004 Or.... order the best ones around from The Seven Workshop. It's a no brainer... Quote
Nutter Posted August 30, 2004 Author Posted August 30, 2004 then order some large bore ones from Burtons (2 sets) Yep, 2 sets will be ordered now! Cheers Guys, On a mission tomorrow morning to get the gaskets. Should have enough time to get it sorted, tanked up then over to the rollers (hopefully) Quote
nlash Posted August 30, 2004 Posted August 30, 2004 Or.... order the best ones around from The Seven Workshop. It's a no brainer... Forget the Burtons ones... they are no good, lucky if they last 1000 miles (centre gasket especially). As Blatters says, the copper faced ones from The 7 Workshop are superb. They are expensive but worth every penny as you will probably only ever need one set for as long as you keep the car Quote

Thanks for the advice. Quote
