I'm having no luck locating Felpro exhaust manifold gaskets for my 71 bgt. Anyone know a good source? Thanks!

From their site it looks like this is the part number MS22506B. Maybe armed with this you can get someone to order it for you

If you can't find Fel-Pro there in Podunk you may have to go to town to get them.

Nobody here in the boonies has heard of them.

Man, have they ever heard of Gaskets??!! Fel-Pro has been the biggest name in gaskets for 40 years. Are you sure they don't think you're saying Velcro? I know they've never heard of that, probably not even zippers yet.

Sam: Reckon real civilization will ever catch up to us like it has for JDW there in the middle of the country? Next thing you know he'll be wanting us to visit a library or something. AL Bradley

Civilization , you want civilization, I bet I can walk 100 feet of my road frontage and pick up at least a garbarge bag of civilization. I'd rather that it never came within 10 miles of me! ;o)

I seen one of them liberries one time. I don't no if it was in a movie or on TV. This is strictly fly-over country. Grass strips have more flight activity than the local airport.

NAPA would be a good choice, if you don't have a cut rate place. Either way, ordering may be the game of the day.

Thanks all. I will try NAPA today. Looks like one of the reasons the gasket didn't seal is that one of the exhaust ports got a little pitted(by rust?) when the head gasket was blown. I need to get a smoother surface this time around.

Napa (at least here) doesn't carry them. They carry some other brand pretty much exclusively. The local auto zone, advance, whatever they call themselves now, does carry Felpro, though. Go figure.

Napa sells Victor gaskets. I ordered a set of Felpros at an out of the way Quality Auto Parts store out in the country.
