    Voice from the past

    My how things change over the years.
    Putting aluminum intake on 5.0 with 302(D5) heads.  Ordered a set of intake gaskets and was sent fel pro 90116 (289/302 hi performance).  Looked a lot like old 351 gaskets, but was not sure.
    They leaked.  Just like old 351 gaskets incorrectly used on 289/302/5.0.
    Re-ordered fel pro 90103, the number I was familiar with from the past.  They leaked, also, but it was due to one gasgket dropping down (my bad).
    Reordered and was told 90103 was obsolete number, having been replaced by fel pro 90361.  These gaskets look identical to 90103, but the package says they fit 302 and 351.  Can the 302 gaskets be used on 351, when the 351 gaskets cannot be used on 302?  Time has moved on but I apparently have not.  Help, please.
    Best,
    Old Al Newman

    Classic cars are full of surprises and almost none of them are good ones!

    Welcome back Al!  Good to know you're still around.

    Coincidentally, before I saw your post I was thinking of one of your best phrases about "the fuel economy of a V8 and the performance of a 6-cylinder" after putting a 250 I-6 in mine.   But maybe the fuel economy will improve - I'm only about 250 miles into the new engine break-in period. 

    Anyway, happy days  :-)
