Anyone have experience of Raven Automotive. They quote much less than Fernies for exhaust manifold gasket replacement on my Griff 500. I was told they use rubber (?) gaskets - sounds odd to me, will they last with the heat? Thanks

No direct experience I'm afraid. However, I have heard good things only....

Not sure whether rubber is stardard, but know someone who recently used (Range Rover, I think) stainless steel gaskets.

Recently replaced all manifold gaskets on 500 engine.
Just order from Land-Rover dealer asking for Range Rover 4.6 fitment-these are 2 piece stainless steel construction.
N.B. these are a total B*st*rd to fit!
