Water absorption 8·5% max. saturation
Tensile strength 70/90MPa
Flexural strength 2830MPa
Shear strength 66N/mm2
Hardness (shore D) 80-85

David!

You know I need a set of these!! Or have you forgotten about me?

I've actually ordered some of the material to get some made, but if yours are ready done, it'll save me a job.

Mail me with your address and I'll send you a cheque.

Cheers

Rich

David,

I'd be interested in a set of these as my inlet manifold on my 94 WRX is off at the moment and would be easy to fit.

Do you still need to use a inlet gasket with them ?

I presume that the clearance to the bonnet is relatively uneffected ?
