Valley gasket on a 3.5 V8

[kartman24]

I am overhualing my V8 and am replacing the valley gasket under the inlet manifold. The normal steel one was on there but someone mentioned a composite one as seen on ebay as an alternative, are these better?...........Martin

The last two engine rebuilds i had done on Classics i went with the composite option.A lot better than the tin one.

I've just rebuilt mine with a composite gasket as well, far better imo.
