Intake flanges are rarely as flat as they were when the engine left the line, and a hard gasket needs a lot of clamp load to make up the difference. A low density composition seals with far less, and it still holds up where the flange pressure is highest around the bolt holes.

Mr. Gasket 214 Performance Intake Manifold Gaskets Features:

• Manufactured from cellulose and nitrile composition gasket material.
• Low density material conforms well to irregular surfaces.
• Very good crush resistance at high flange pressures.
• Can be trimmed if necessary for modified port applications.
• For original equipment replacement, high performance street, drag race and oval track use.
