FAQ:
Will this fit my Indmar Chevy-based engine? If your Indmar uses a Chevrolet/GM small block or big block in the sizes listed above, this gasket is typically the correct thermostat housing gasket. Confirm by matching the gasket shape and bolt-hole spacing to your housing before ordering.
Do I need sealant? Many applications install dry; use sealant only if recommended by your service manual.
