@SUPERJET-113 can hook you up with a quality gasket kit for a great price. I've used his gasket before and have been very pleased.

I agree w smoofers

I can tell you I have been using the WSM gasket kits for over 20 years without a single issue. I would still use OEM crank seals though if it was something I was keeping.

Not to self, don't buy from Mikidymac lol

Stick with oem crank seals, 1211 silicone and any gaskets will work..

Thats not right the right thing to do, stop spreading propaganda!

Personally, I do use some silicone on the flywheel gasket on a freestyle ski.

I have chased enough air leaks that everything gets a light covering of 1211. Cheap insurance and easy clean off.

Good thing I’m a hoarder and don’t sell anything. Honestly though their gaskets are just fine. Not as good as oem or the old Hot Products brand but way better than SBT and Wonderosa. +1 on the 1211 but I prefer 1184 on the cases. That being said it’s all a personal preference.

I put everything together with sikaflex or liquid nail







Jk






Or am I?

Yeah but those bullet smokers are amazing.

Klingersil Thermoseal and Interface solutions material for the win every time. No cheese gaskets allowed!
Just between those 2 companies they have been making and developing gasket material for over 220 years!
