They don't appear to be handed.
I thought they were since they are in pairs, I note there are also singles available which apparently are more difficult to fit.
But if chunks get blown our of them, it's a moot point really :o

The steels gaskets fit either way up, clamping them between cast iron and aluminium means the raised lines will seal either way around. Unless they are damaged they generally seal again if reused. The last 3.9 engine I fitted new exhaust gaskets to got a set of later D2 (longer) bolts and spacer tubes to keep the wretched things tight. At least they were still tight 6 months later when I worked on it again.

At the moment I am seriously thinking of scrapping the car. I've had enough.
Once she's a goer again Ron, you'll change your mind!
Plus - April fools day was over a week ago now!
No, I'm serious. I could sell the Kaymar rear bar and wheel carrier; the long range tank; and the RRS wheels. There's at least $2K.
Dunno if the top-hatted block is saleable or not.
I've also got the drawer system could sell.

Re the bar & carrier ;-) mine was due to be made in August but life got in the way, will be in the next two months now all going well.
It'd be a sad day to see another P38 off the road for good though...
But if you sell it or wreck it, you will then have to start all over again :D
I feel your pain though, 40K for heads off again is just not right :mad:

Relax, it'll be going back together & will be driving again soon.
Either that or it gets rolled out of my driveway & into the Nepean River....
Scott,Ron, does there appear to be any reason for the gasket fail that you can summize?
