Product Details

If you're rebuilding the top end of a classic Cadillac or Darrin, a solid cylinder head gasket is crucial for a good seal. The Fel-Pro 7893 PT PermaTorque gasket is built to handle the demands of the repair environment, especially when dealing with surfaces that aren't perfectly flat.

This gasket features a wire ring design with stainless steel armor around the cylinder openings. This setup concentrates the sealing pressure right where it's needed, which helps it manage high cylinder pressures and the movement that can happen with performance engines. It's made with proprietary materials that Fel-Pro uses to ensure a reliable seal, and it's application-specific, meaning it's made to fit right on a range of 1956-1963 Cadillac models like the DeVille, Eldorado, and Series 62, as well as Darrin vehicles.

While this gasket is designed for robust sealing, it's important to note it's not intended for use on emission-controlled vehicles. Fel-Pro has a reputation for creating gaskets that work well in real-world repair situations.
