Titan Motorsport Mls Gasket Coating?

jfunez · 10-12-2006, 03:03 AM

I just received the tms metal head gasket that I had ordered, but apparently I got the wrong one. A week ago I spoke to an employee from Titan Motorsports and he told me that these headgaskets indeed have a Rubbery coating like the ones from HKS and Greedy but now that I received mine I notice it does not, it is plain metal with no signs of any coating.
Have they shipped me the wrong one? or am been fooled by imitation?
by the way, I purchased it trhough HORSEPOWER FREAKS.

Has anyone used this type of headgasket, maybe you can Identify it for me?
please let me know....

here are several pics of the culprit...

the coating is there mostlikely because i just recieved my metal headgasket and the outer metal seems to be a little soft feeling when i rub my nail over it so try that it might look hard but it should feel at least a little soft.

Looks like mine down to the same plywood packaging! Just make sure both surfaces are clean and pretty smooth and torque to the ARP numbers and you are good to go. That is all I did and it works great!
