About this part

Product Details

This is a Cometic Aramid Fiber fuel pump mounting plate gasket for Chevrolet Gen-1 Small Block V8 engines. It's designed to seal the fuel pump to the engine block, preventing leaks and ensuring proper fuel delivery. This gasket fits a wide range of vehicles, including many Chevrolet C/K trucks, Camaros, and Corvettes from the early 80s.

The gasket is made from Aramid Fiber, a material known for its high-temperature resistance and density. This means it holds up well under the heat generated by the engine and won't compress over time, which is important for maintaining a good seal without needing to be re-torqued. It's also fuel resistant and asbestos-free, and you won't need any extra sealants when installing it, making the job straightforward.
