Roger Apparently its called vulcanised fibre https://www.rhnuttall.co.uk/materials/vulcanised-fibre/ You could always talk to Ram gaskets down here as their MD is a member of the club and runs a TR4 and 4a https://www.ramgaskets.com/ Stuart.

ed_h Posted May 21, 2020 Report Share Posted May 21, 2020 "Fish paper" is vulcanized fiber, and looks and feels similar to the material used for those fiber washers. Fish paper is used as electrical insulation. I bought some a while back, but everything i saw online was a grey color. Ed Quote Link to post Share on other sites
