    does anyone know if I should use the thick plastic gaskets or the thin metal ones between the injection manifold and head. Struggling to find any info on which is the right way! Studs will be too short if it's the plastic type

    Thick gaskets for injection.

    Phew! I didn't fit them but after the missing spacer behind the fan issue yesterday I thought I'd better check!
    I have Bentley, Tom Wilson and camper resto books here and couldn't find info in either..
    Top advice as always thanks guys, it really is appreciated!
