I just went out to the garage and opened my intake set and found the same metal valley pan. I had purchased one about 3 months ago and it was the blue coated one. Same part # both times. ????????????, Phil.

I used to sell FelPro and the MS96033 was always just a stamped steel tray. I guess it's possible that they changed it and now changed it back, but I wouldn't think so. They are Chapter 11 though!

Here's a link to a picture of one. It's hard to tell, but I think it does look blue.

The felpro blue intake gasket number was changed to MS96033PB. Don't know why, but they added the PB. I just picked one up today at Autozone.

I bought one this time last year and it was blue coated.I specifically bought it because I prefer it to the regular steel one.

yes it is .This gasket is good for high boost.It has a permatex coating instead of the stamp steel gasket that is metal against metal ...
