Here's a pic of the heavy duty truck exhaust manifold gaskets with the valve cover shields.  I started using these upon having a rash of exhaust manifolds crack or break upon after using the fibre gaskets that were being supplied with the rebuild kits.  These gaskets greatly reduced the occurence of exhaust manifolds cracking on my end.  This particular pair of gaskets are FelPro P/N MS-95003 but can likely be found in other brands also  The top gasket shows the side that goes toward the head while the lower gasket shows the side that is placed against the exhaust manifold itself.

These gaskets were used on trucks equipped with the Rams Horn exhausts to help shield the valve cover area from the high rising manifold.

I've always thought those would look so good in Chrome or Stainless, or even powder coat for that matter. Chuck

Thanks Ted. I'll go get some tomorrow.

Powercoating might add too much weight. But it sure would be nice to do that to reduce heat transfer.
