Well... it does show a 5% increase, but that chart could be from anything. It could be a complete fabrication.

I'll wait for your "unbiased" test results and commentary. Let us know what you think of the performance.

But first... Tell us what you think of the prioduct as it stands right now - like your impressions of the material and the overall quality.

Haha ok... the gasket is made of a hard plastic Im guessing nylon and no doubt costs about ten cents to make but dont quote me on that. I could deffinatly make these with a template if it is in fact nylon but, the cut is cleaner than I could do without taking fine grit sand paper too it after which they didnt have to do.

For the test I will be installing it next week because I let someone use my garage space to fix their car which their not doing so next monday I told them Im pushin it out on the street if they dont fix it this weekend...

Haha!!

And to think, they say:
Made from a high performance polymer, PowerGasketâ„¢ conducts on average less than 1/500th of the heat of the steel gasket that it replaces.
Hehehe!
