Phil M Posted October 3, 2019 Report Share Posted October 3, 2019 Hi, I having my inlet manifolds reconditioned by Malcolm at Prestige and need a new inlet/exhaust gasket, having read a number of threads I decided a Payen was the best to go for. I have tried the links on this site to Ebay and another supplier but they are all out of stock, and trawling the internet has drawn a blank. Does any one know a supplier that may have one in stock Many Thanks Phil Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JochemsTR Posted October 3, 2019 Report Share Posted October 3, 2019 Phil, I bought mine from Moss. High Performance version. Big advantage: the gasket can be modified to fit perfectly inlet/outlet. Jochem Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nigel Triumph Posted October 3, 2019 Report Share Posted October 3, 2019 The Payen part no. is JA510. It appears to be available from Heritage Gaskets currently: http://www.heritagegasketsltd.co.uk/products/4588089187/triumph-2.0-2.5-payen-ref-no-ja510/9369036 Nigel Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Waldi Posted October 3, 2019 Report Share Posted October 3, 2019 5 pounds for a Payen, can this be correct? Waldi Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JochemsTR Posted October 3, 2019 Report Share Posted October 3, 2019 I don’t like the Payen, since it has a metal lining. This you cannot modify. I have not seen any gaskets fitting perfectly on inlet/exhaust. Jochem Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Waldi Posted October 4, 2019 Report Share Posted October 4, 2019 Hi Jochem, on the inlet the need for these rings is not too critical, on the exhaust they protect the gasket from oxidizing (burning). The is always some excess oxigen in the exhaust gas. Additionally, they basically provide a 2nd seal, as a a soft metal gasket, besides the sheet gasket. I worked for a gasket manufacturer some 35 years ago during my study, and some guys were still making head gaskets by hand with these rings, so with some practice I think one can make and fit them at home if you want to modify the port area.

JochemsTR Posted October 4, 2019 Report Share Posted October 4, 2019 Moss‘ high Performance version does not have the metal linings....they seem to be made from some kind composite material....I will check in upcoming winter how it held up... Jochem Quote Link to post Share on other sites
