Were you a RICER before you got into buicks? They seem to think stickers give them HP...J/k'ing

Um, let's give the kid a break. <- This coming from a 23 yearold

The best you are going to find interms of gasket quality is its reliability: You get what you pay for in most cases.

In terms of hp... there should be no significance... outside of power created and the gaskets ability to survive in those conditions.

What gaskets are you looking to use/change?

I would like to know which is better, cork or rubber? I'm on my third rubber pan gasket, was told they are the best, and it still leaks. Going to try cork next time.

19yearboost, don't take it personally. Some of these guys act like they came out of the womb with all the knowledge of the universe, forget they were new at one time as well.

ive been told cork is better for the oil pan, but who knows

If you are on your 3rd gasket then something is wrong. Make sure that your surfaces are clean and dry when assembled. Both are good. I prefer rubber. Are you torqueing to specs? too tight is bad also.
