Has anyone used this felpro gasket kit???? i was wondering what all came in it... I know no apex seals... Mainly is there enough in the kit to replace my oil rings. i cant find any contents info anywhere.. the engine runs great just smokes a big poof at start up and then when you rap the throttle real quick it gives a poof. after it warms up there really isnt any more smoke than normal. i hope i am on the right track here. It is deffinatly oil smole though. even warm if you let it sit a few mins after its warm it will smoke a big poof when started. I overheated it the other night to about 250 degrees so i figured i toasted the oil rings.

The Felpro gasket set is a good set. It has all the soft seals needed to rebuild a 12a. Does not come with Apex seals. Oil o-rings and water seals are in there. I have used 3 of them so far and with good results. I even used one on a 13b, just needed different intake, exhaust, and oil pan gaskets. Good luck.
