Head gasket for FP35
« on: May 06, 2014, 02:55:20 PM »
I asked in engine tips but i'll ask here too.Are the head gaskets for the FP35 and the FP40 one in the same?  I kmow the bore of the 40 is slightly larger than the 35 by 1mm.  Tower Hobbies has the gasket set for the 40 but not the 35. All help appreciated.

Thanks, Rich

Thunder Tiger PRO-36 head gasket can be used for FP35 though the backplate gasket does not fit.
