    Updated Cam Cover Gaskets!

    Right!

    Following several requests from different people we are now at a stage to start selling these uprated gaskets.

    They are an exact copy of the OEM item and as per the uprated inlet gaskets I produce are cut using a C02 lazer bed.
    They are also made from the same PTFE material which doesn't fail when in contact with oil/petrol like the standard items.
    Also they aren't affecting by over vibration caused by high revving and unsilenced exhausts etc.

    Due to these properties they will also be reuseable - a good wipe down to get a good clean seal again and all should be fine...

    The gasket has been trialled by 16v_paddy off the forum - he has tested for leaking - both outside and inside edges and results show nothing seaping at all. Happy Days!

    Heres some pictures - apologies for the poor quality - taken from a camera phone...







    Now obviously I have a lot of wasted material to deal with here as it has to be made in one piece of PTFE. However costs aren't as high as initially expected (£50).

    Actual cost is £35 via paypal including delivery and packaging.
    If you purchase this along with a full inlet set (manifold and t.body) then I will do an all-in-one combined price of £60.

    Bearing in mind you will spend probably what £20 on a standard item from Renault (or slightly less £12 plus postage from ebay) at least one more time in the ownership of your valver/williams this is evidently a cleaner, more reliable and more investable alternative.

    If you would like to order one please drop me a PM so we can sort out payment and address details.

    Cheers :D

    Looking at it, I don't think so. I know the bit you mean.

    I'll probably be investing in a couple of these soon.

    Group buy? :D

    Maybe it fits fine because the gasket it was copied from wasn't from renault, it was in the head gasket set I got from stan
