Just ordered a set for my rebuild :) |
|
In case people don;t know they make the following in AFM |
|
Basegasket |
|
Clutch Cover gasket |
|
Stator Gasket |
|
Intake Gasket |
|
PV Window gasket (from a RM250) |
|
I love all of these gaskets as I can take it apart anywhere and |
|
put it back together and not worry about breaking a gasket or |
|
having to find a new one to use. |
|
I've had the clutch and stator off at least 10 times same gasket |
|
no prob, same in intake and just ordered a PV window B/C the OEM |
|
one ripped and I'm sick of not being able to re-use it or having |
|
to be extra careful when I do work on the motor. |

K&S Gaskets are automotove approved "die cut paper gaskets" and |
|
will work just like the OEM gaskets. |
|
The Cometic gaskets are the next level up (Aluminum - Foam |
|
Material) The AFM is a chemically blown, compounded nitrile |
|
synthetic rubber bonded to an aluminum core with temperature |
|
resistance of over 250F. AFM material has an 85% recovery while |
|
maintaining strong torque retention. AFM does not require gasket |
|
sealers or re-tightening. |

Sounds like a better produced gasket regardless of the price. |
|
Thanks |

k+s gaskets are junk. there seals are too. there 500 gaskets |
|
were all off, didn't line up. and i used there seal kit and |
|
every seal leaked on me. replaced them all with oem, didn't |
|
leak again. |
|
i use cometic paper gaskets never had a problem. but a afm |
|
would be nice for the clutch cover, wouldn't stick and tear. |
