What It Helps Fix

- Loss of sealing after gasket wear, heat cycling, or flange service
- Improper sealing caused by a damaged or flattened flange gasket
Installation Notes
Install Fel-Pro 8985 at the manifold-to-front-pipe connection only where the flange pattern, port shape, and port diameter match the vehicle application. Inspect the mating surfaces for warpage, corrosion, or carbon buildup before assembly, and clean both sides of the flange to support even gasket contact. Verify the 2-bolt pattern and round port alignment during installation on the exhaust system.
Quality Assurance
Fel-Pro gaskets are built around application-specific sealing materials and are trusted in professional repair environments for exhaust sealing service. Fel-Pro 8985 follows that approach with a premium composite design intended to maintain a reliable seal in the specified classic vehicle applications.
