Excaliber, the material for the gaskets that Finishline sells seems to be pretty good quality. Before I bought those gaskets a year ago I looked at gasket material and all I could find was the thick paper type stuff and I didn't think it would hold up. If I remember correctly I think it was only good for around 700 degrees. That was the reason I went with the ones from Finishline.
