Anyone know of a good supplier that can cut gaskets if supplied with a DXF?
I've drawn up the profiles, I was going to try cut them out myself but thought it would be worth seeing if there's a go to?
They're for the inlet and outlet of my M62 supercharger.

buy some material, print a 1:1, stick, break out the exacto ?
would be a cool service if there was such a thing tho. would they cut it with a water jet or laser ? I'd ask one of those places. cutting stuff is less specialist than you think?

Yeah that's the next plan, I've tried one place but they want 18 quid per gasket and 15 quid postage, which seems a tad steep. I've traced them out and cutting them out of Flexoid gasket paper for now, it's not the most accurate work I've ever achieved. |

check the mount-faces are flat, pointless using gaskets if not (mastic / sillycon to the rescue?)

I never used gaskets on my SC, just Dirko.
