Novarossi 2011 Exhaust gaskets

With increasing RPM and engines that are running as lean as possible to deliver the most power possible, the temperature of the exhaust gas have become quite high, which is damaging the exhaust gasket. With the release of the new 2011 Nova line of engines, Novarossi have a different shaped exhaust channel which has no sharp corners, a change that also required a modification to the design of the exhaust gasket itself. As seen in our coverage from Nuremberg, the new gaskets have a different internal shape which allows for better contact with the crankcase, plus it also is made from a more heat resistant material. All 3 modifications are made to improve the life such a little, but important, part of their high performance competition engines.
