Source for a Paper (non-cork) Pan Gasket ?

[jeffnhiscars]

I'll be dropping my front subframe soon and may just change the pan gasket "while Im in there" but every source I check only sells the cork gasket which I wont install. I'd like to at least have one on hand in case I get ambitious.

Any leads will be appreciated.

Have you actually bought one from Steve ?

I was looking into this yesterday. I didn't see a paper one on Blunttech, he had a cork & and cork/rubber hybrid. I would call and check, he can probably order you one.

I did find it on ECS and RMeuropean

I didnt realize the OE was rubber. I'll have to check back with my dealer parts guy since we thought it would be cork.

Thanks for the references

Note: the OE is"rubberized cork" ie cork.

so I have one coming from RM along with the M3 CAB's Im going to need.

I also ordered some Curil K2 since it gets rave reviews but that stuff is damn near impossible to buy.
