Hey Thingers. This question is an easy one for you motor gurus. I am powder coating all of my engine tin before putting back in the car. What and who sells all the little doo dads and gaskets that need to go back on? Items like the gaskets for the dog house, gaskets for the heat exchange risers, stuff like that. Any and all help is appreciated.

I recently sandblasted and repainted my engine tin. The only tin-specific gaskets are on the dog house tins. They just cover the edges that come in contact with the fan shroud. The oil cooler itself has a foam strip glued to it that seals inside the dog house.

I believe you can get those items from West Coast Metric....stuff like the heat tube rubber donuts, accelerator cable rubber thingy that goes in the back of the fan shroud.....etc.
