Ford Model A Graphite Head Gasket | 1928-1934 | B-6051-XO
Upgrade your Ford Model A engine with this Graphite Head Gasket (B-6051-XO), designed to suit 1928-1934 Ford Model A engines.
This graphite-style gasket is based on the standard B-6051-C design but eliminates the two small steam holes located between cylinders #2 and #3. These holes can become a weak point in standard gaskets, making this version a stronger and more durable option for demanding applications.
Snyder's specifically recommends this gasket when fitting high-compression cylinder heads to a standard Model A engine block, while it also performs exceptionally well in standard rebuilds where improved sealing reliability is desired.
Manufactured in the USA from premium gasket material, this head gasket delivers excellent sealing performance while maintaining correct coolant and combustion sealing.
Yesteryear Garage & Parts proudly supplies genuine Snyder's Antique Auto Parts throughout Australia.
Installation Notes
For best sealing performance:
Ensure both the cylinder head and engine block surfaces are perfectly clean and flat before installation.
Always install the gasket in the correct orientation.
Tighten cylinder head nuts using the correct Model A tightening sequence.
Torque fasteners in multiple stages to the manufacturer's recommended specification.
After the engine has reached full operating temperature and completely cooled, re-torque the cylinder head to maintain an effective seal.
Proper installation significantly improves gasket life and helps prevent coolant or compression leaks.
