SOUTHFIELD, Mich., April 12 /PRNewswire/ -- Kurt Busch claimed his third
consecutive win at Bristol (TN) Motor Speedway and Fel-Pro PermaTorqueMLS head
gaskets -- the next-generation sealing solution from Federal-Mogul Corporation
(OTC Bulletin Board: FDMLQ) helped seal the victory.
Engineered to deliver a perfect seal in a wide range of high-pressure,
high-heat applications, new PermaTorqueMLS head gaskets feature multiple
layers of full-hard stainless steel, precise and durable sealing beads and a
proprietary coating that accommodates a wide range of surface finishes.
PermaTorqueMLS performance gaskets are ideally suited to the demands of high-
output naturally aspirated, supercharged and Nitrous-assisted engines.
The expanded PermaTorqueMLS performance product line now covers most
Generation IV and all Generation V and VI Chevy big-block engines. The new
gasket numbers seal big-block applications with bore sizes of 4.380-in. (Fel-
Pro part #1071), 4.580-in. (#1075) and 4.640-in. (#1077), with compressed
gasket thickness of .041-in.
PermaTorqueMLS gaskets allow for lateral and vertical motion of the
cylinder head without compromising sealing performance. Each gasket includes
a unique combustion seal design to ensure leak-free performance at maximum
rpms and water temperatures. Other winning drivers who have relied on
PermaTorqueMLS performance gaskets this year are Dale Earnhardt Jr. (#8
Chevrolet, (winner of the Daytona 500 and Busch Series Hershey's Kisses 300)
and Matt Kenseth (#17 Ford, Subway 400 and UAW-DaimlerChrysler 400).
"PermaTorqueMLS is one of the most significant engine-sealing advances in
decades," said Fel-Pro Product Manager Ron Rotunno. "Our continued success in
NASCAR Nextel Cup and Busch Series racing has created tremendous demand for
PermaTorqueMLS technology for a number of powerful applications."
