Top End Gaskets - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

tf95ZR1 · 05-22-2006

Yesterday I went to the "Plastic Fantastic" Corvette show in San Diego. Lots of cars, but only 3 ZR1's, and one was there just to try and sell. (1990 with about 12K miles asking $39.5K I believe)
Lets all try to participate and keep the Legend alive!
I was talking to someone there and mentioned the plenum and injector housing gaskets. He said it is better to buy the GM gaskets as they have a thickened edge around the ports for better sealing. The other "generics" are flat as if just cut out of a sheet.
Is this true, and does it make a difference?
