FORD 239-255 FULL GASKET SET. Another great vintage listing from Falcon Classic! This listing is for a BEST Gasket complete/full gasket set for 1949-53 Ford and Mercury passenger car models and 1948-53 Ford truck models using the 239ci or 255ci flathead V-8 engine with distributor mounted at perpendicular angle to the camshaft. P/N RS521C; head gasket bore is 3.295. We offer “big bore” head gaskets for large overbored blocks. This gasket set is for late-design flathead V-8 engines which have the distributor mounted at a perpendicular angle to the camshaft; compared to early-design where the distributor is driven directly off the forward end of the camshaft. BEST Gasket is the leading name in sealing performance in the restoration industry. Image shown is an actual factory supplied picture showing set contents. Best copper cylinder head gaskets consist of two outer sheets of a generously thick. 010 copper and a low-density graphite filler sheet. This high-quality graphite sheet is superior to asbestos, which was used in the old days, and far superior to the non-asbestos materials found in other manufacturers’ modern copper head gaskets. Excellent torque retention is achieved by using superior materials. Best copper gaskets are definitely old-school but with a modern flair for better performance. They are such works of art, we almost hate to sell them! FALCON TECH NOTE : When installing a Best copper head gasket, use a spray-on sealant like K&W Copper Coat or Permatex Copper Spray-A-Gasket and always re-torque; no short-cuts.
