Snap up's are a life saver!!
John Gurnig is the best. Real-life experience in vehicle service industry, now applying his expertise to the validation of Fel-Pro technologies so everyone can be sure they'll do the job the first time.
These SnapUps are really, really...REALLY nice. Especially if you are crawling under your car on wheel ramps laying on your back trying to line up the gasket and put bolts in also trying not to smear the spots of RTV on those areas they were talking about everywhere. It's better than an extra set of helping hands because it lines it right up and holds things perfectly in place on all 4 corners.
I got 439,906 miles on my sbc 350 using your gaskets, their my go to for any build
FelPro is good stuff. On the BMW n54 their valve cover gasket "the blue one" has 5 ridges compared to the others which only have 1 or 2. My buddy and I replaced ours at the same time. I went with the felpro which was slightly bit more in cost and he went with another brand. 3 years later his is leaking again. LOL
You have to be old to know the phrase " A little dab will do ya." Helpful video thanks.
Yes, I caught that too. Age here is 76.

I currently got that second gasket plus on my 302 rebuild. Nice gasket.
I have bought 2 felpro oil pan gaskets for my 2000 chevy tahoe Z71 with the 5.7, part # 0S 34500R. Neither had the torque stops that the gasket in this video displays. However, it appears that there were torque stops left behind on the 4 corner studs at some point. I discovered that there were actually 2 on one stud, which, I suspect, is why the gasket was leaking in that corner. I see that other gaskets on your table do not have the torque stops. Do I need them or not?
what is the best rtv to use with these gaskets on the corners
@ Fel-Pro - guys I just bought your transmission pan gasket for my Sequoia. Going to do the work tomorrow. The surface of the pan is completely flat, so no RTV at all then, right?
Glad I seen this, avoid the smear!
Sold! Thanks for the assist.
I took the advice from the guy at the parts store and applied a bead of rtv around the whole gasket. I guess now I shouldn’t have…but I haven’t put the oil back in the car. Will the gasket fail fail 100 percent or do I have a good chance it won’t fail??? Thanks
Really wish you guys made the one piece neoprene blue pan gasket for a 2.2 s10, cavalier, Sunfire etc. Cork is terrible
Well I have a 383 in my S-10 and I used a rubber gasket. I couldn’t find the cork gasket that fit.
Hello my dipstick is broken in the motor I would like to know if I can remove the rest of the tube by the oil pan?
Please make a permadry plus gasket for the ford 4.2l V6
Do you make this type of oil pan gasket for the continental F-162 and F-163 used in Lincoln welding SA200 machine.
Thank you ............ good job
Key points..step..90deg joint
Ok,i know I'm not the only 1 who hears Kermit when the young guy talks!!??
Do u put rtv on both side are just 1side
The gasket comes with instructions. The instructions say only on the block side
Why doesn't Fel-Pro make an oil pan gasket for a 7.3 powerstroke?
Can I purchase these snap-ups for specific vehicle models?
They go by thread diameter it seems like
Always 👍👍
How do I remove a freeze plug made of rubber
Hi John and crew, thanks for the video. Do you put a dab of RTV on the PAN SIDE OF THE GASKET as well where the 90 degree joint comes in? I tried the method of using RTV just against the block with the Fel-Pro rubber gasket and it failed in that area. Tried tightening to no avail (in fact made leak worse). Have a new gasket with a new pan and would like to get it right. Thank you!
Typically just block side
Whats the link for a small block chevy oil pan gasket??
I would like to know that also haven’t had a reply to my email ? I also found out there’s a thick and thin front seal
I would like to know as well , please
It depends on whether your dipstick is on the drivers or passenger side of the car
They do make a universal one though. Just search felpro sbc oil pan gasket and look for the “rubber with steel core” one
How much is not to much?
That’s awesome v
Before Id consider using RTV which is reactive to mineral oil Id use Hylomar.....
Replacing my 99 CRV Oil Pan gasket. The previous mechanic globbed RTV on everything & it leaked everywhere.
Did you get yours fixed? I had the same thing happen to me.
& the way the other dude says, “conversation”. I just hear Bobby’s World… “Now, don’t-cha-know-Baaahbbi…”
Fel Pro gaskets yes. RTV no. Permatex No 2 all the way. Remove old gasket then use chlorinated brake cleaner on gasket surfaces until clean. No 2 is forgiving where RTV is not. Like putting in a silicone booger that will leak over time if there is any residue on the gasket or surface. Just my experience.
Bit late, but a lot of people use black rtv because it's oil resistant and dries a lot faster.
just a dab ba dab doooooo!!!!
A little annoying the snap-ups aren't included with the whole gasket set. I guess the assumption is you're working on a stand, but for what those cost it's silly not to include them
Should have installed upside down motor
Are these gaskets reusable?
Broke ass
To bad fel pro don't make a 1969 oldsmobile 442 400 ci oil pan gasket one piece
Less is more. Ask me how I know. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
It would be as easy as that if the engine could flip it over like that. But you can't.
Can I reuse my gasket ?
what do you think
How poor can you be
I really hate the way you say gasket, lol.
