I'd shop on ebay and try for GM or Victor old stock vs something made in China. Langdon's Stovebolt should carry the crank seal or Patrick's in Casa Grande, AZ and Chevys of the 40's. These guys should be linked to this site or check the vendors over on Stovebolt.com. Best of luck Jim

Federal Mogul is an international supplier of FelPro gasket sets for all vehicles and marine applications. You should be able to do a web search in England to locate a supplier.

I would "stay away" from NOS stuff on e-bay. Remember; Its decades old and gaskets shrink & rubber parts are often to hard to seal properly. Patrick's will have all that you need (new/used) for a 235/261 engine. Their # is: (520) 836-1117. Good luck.

Blue,
There is no difference between Chevy 235 truck and car gasket sets.
Good luck getting your car on the road!
Lord, let me live long enough to do all the projects I have planned!
