Vince12v 20 Posted November 18, 2013 Report Share Posted November 18, 2013 Is there a reason vr6 have metal gaskets on the inlet manifold!I think mine is drawin in air Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to post Share on other sites
RsvRob 6 Posted November 18, 2013 Report Share Posted November 18, 2013 (edited) It would still be a metal multi layer crush gasket. There's no special reason. But sometimes better quality!! Metal due to heat soak. Don't use paper... Sent from Dagobah Edited November 18, 2013 by RsvRob Link to post Share on other sites
