martin what torque did you do them up to?
as im putting mine back together tomorrow.
Found out why they were leaking.
The powdercoated around the inner egde has pickled and was causing air pockets around the bead of the rim.
All sorted now and all refurbished

Martin said you could buy new ones, but not sure if yours and mine would be the same to be honest.
Im sure there available.
if not sealer would do the trick.

Tony Ryan uses some stuff he gets it like fookin concrete.
He uses it on his inlet manifold instead of gaskets.
Will find out what stuff it is.
I think i remember him saying it was just clear mastic sealer from the Autofactors
