cnc Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 I have chosen to use the PermaTorque head gaskets 9392PT. The oil passage in the gasket normally uses a rubber o-ring to seal it. However, there is a metal ring, looks exactly like a miniature fire ring, right there. Is that designed to eliminate the need for that o-ring? Thanks. cnc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Svengouli7 Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 Hi Cnc. Just found your thread searching for the same answer. I just picked up felpros based on everyones recc's on here. It appears they have a built in crush washer like you noticed. I am sure someone will chime in if this isn't so. . "bump" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skishop69 Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Correct. It is an improved design. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cnc Posted February 16, 2012 Author Share Posted February 16, 2012 Hawt dayum! What a relief! I really didn't want to yank the whole shebang apart. Again. This was the third time I've done the engine. I swore that next time, I'd just use velcro and zip ties to hold it in, to make it faster to pop out again.http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/images/smilies/perplexed.gif Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
