    Default Intake Gasket Part No.

    I know the part numbers are different for a Ecotec v6 and Superchargfed v6 intake manifold gasket are different, but they look the same and i heave read reports they are the same. Can anybody confirm this ? I am after the Aluminium ones from YT but they only have it for Supercharged and not sure if it fits both. Thanks

    I've fitted the L67 aluminium LIM gaskets to an ecotec and the only difference betwee the heads is the slight recessed sections for the L67 injectors. The L67 lim gaskets clear that bracket on the rear drivers side going to the inside of the head and seal fully on all ports.

    You won't have an issue using them on an ecotec. Just torque them a little tighter than the OEM specs because the alloy can take it.

    I don't know but I've always found them competitive for price. Especially if you are a regular lol
