FS: M38A1 Fording Kit Gaskets for Bell Housing/Engine/Trans

Post by dlevy » Mon Jul 10, 2017 10:40 pm

Hi All,

I wanted to replace the fording gaskets as original, but could not find the gaskets for the bellhousing that go from the engine block to the transmission. I was able to find an original bellhousing to backing plate gasket, but this was so shrunken that the OD was about ¾” too small.

My originals when I disassembled the engine were good for partial patterns, but nothing more.

So I made new gaskets by drawing them in CAD and then laser cutting them from FelPro Karropak gasket material.

There are 5 gaskets total in the set:

Included gaskets:
Engine Block : Bellhousing Backing Plate
Bellhousing Backing Plate : Bellhousing
Bellhousing : Transmission
Starter : Bellhousing
Bellhousing Access Cover

I only made 5 set so have 4 left if anyone is interested.

$75 for a set of 5 pieces plus shipping.

Here are some pictures with my restoration. The starter and access cover gaskets are not shown.

Thanks,
Dave
