Are you just about ready to give up on trying to seal the valve covers on your Triumph Stag engine? Are you driving in fear of being reported to the EPA? Gasket Innovations has the answer!
These precision gaskets have been designed specifically for the original valve covers on the 1971-77 Triumph V8 engine. The high-temperature silicone construction allows the gaskets to crush -- without extruding outwards -- much more than the stock cork gaskets for better sealing.
Simply clean your valve cover, spread a thin bead of RTV sealant around the flange to hold the gasket in place, and install the gasket. Let the silicone cure at least 8 hours (24 hours is ideal) before installing the cover. The silicone is so soft and conformable, it needs very little pressure to seal. Screwing the fasteners down just past finger-tight is usually enough! When it's time to adjust the valves, the gasket will stay with the valve cover. The gaskets are reusable indefinitely, which means it could be the last valve cover gasket you will ever buy! Sold in pairs (enough for one engine).
Fits the original factory valve covers on the 3.0L Triumph V8 engine as used on the Triumph Stag. May not fit aftermarket valve covers. Will not fit the Rover V8 engine used in the TR8.
