12a Turbo gaskets and o-rings.

Post by Porters2 »

Hi Guys,
does anybody have any suggestions, as to the best place to source gaskets and o-rings for my 12a turbo engine these days ??

All ideas gratefully received....

Cheers in advance,
Steve.

Hi Dibs,
Thanks mate, I have the engine completely stripped, so I will need oil control and water jacket orings for starters.
Just seems like hard work just sourcing the damn things,
( just used to get them from the stores when I worked for Mazda in the 80s lol ).

Sorry Steve when you said o rings I automatically thought inlet manifold, didn't think full rebuild.
You need to have a word with Aston at Essex Rotary 07880 913505, they are in South Ockendon.
