Intake Gasket - SBC O/P w/Head Hunter Heads

The Intake Gasket for Small Block Chevy with Head Hunter Heads from Brodix (MG 1229) is a precision composite gasket engineered for high-performance engine builds using Brodix cylinder heads. This gasket seals the intake manifold to the cylinder head interface, a critical junction that experiences constant pressure cycling and thermal stress. The 0.06-inch thickness and rubber-coated composite construction provide reliable sealing for both street and competition applications, preventing coolant and combustion gases from bypassing the gasket under load.

Designed specifically for Brodix Head Hunter heads, this gasket features a 1.361 x 2.225-inch oval port opening that matches the precise port geometry of these cylinder heads. The rubber-coated composite material balances compressibility with durability—it absorbs minor surface variations in the mating surfaces while resisting extrusion under the sustained boost or nitrous pressures common in modified small block Chevy engines. Weighing just 0.06 lbs, the compact footprint (2.95 x 0.75 x 19.55 inches) fits the standard small block Chevy intake tract without modification.

Builders and engine shops rely on matched gasket sets when assembling Brodix Head Hunter cylinder head combinations. This gasket is mandatory for achieving proper sealing in fresh engine builds, head replacements, or intake manifold work on small block Chevy platforms. The Brodix brand's reputation in the cylinder head market extends to their gasket specifications—these are developed and tested alongside the heads themselves to ensure compatibility and performance life. Each unit ships individually and is ready for immediate installation.

For small block Chevy engine builders and performance shops, using the correct OEM-specification gasket is non-negotiable. Brodix Head Hunter heads demand a gasket that matches their port design and thermal characteristics. This Brodix MG 1229 intake gasket delivers that precision, ensuring consistent sealing and eliminating the guesswork in assembly.
