New Fel-Pro(R) Performance Catalog Features Expanded Coverage of MLS Head Gaskets, Other World-Class Sealing Technologies for Racing, Street Performance Engines

SOUTHFIELD, Mich.--Feb. 3, 2006--The 2006 Fel-Pro(R) Performance Gaskets Catalog is now available featuring significantly expanded coverage of Fel-Pro PermaTorqueMLS(R) performance head gaskets and other exclusive sealing solutions for today's professional and sportsman racing engines and high-output street performance applications.

Fel-Pro gaskets, "The Gaskets Professionals Trust(TM)," are manufactured and marketed by Federal-Mogul Corporation (OTCBB: FDMLQ). Fel-Pro performance gaskets represent the latest sealing technologies preferred by successful engine builders in virtually every form of racing, including NASCAR Nextel Cup, Busch and Craftsman Truck series competition, dirt and asphalt circle track racing and NHRA and IHRA drag racing.

"Our focus on the Fel-Pro Performance product line is stronger than ever, with a significant number of innovative products and expanded coverage," said Fel-Pro Performance Products Manager, Ron Rotunno. "Our aggressive product development activities, proven designs and premium materials, combined with increased coverage and comprehensive technical information, make Fel-Pro the absolute best choice for all performance engine builders."

The 2006 performance gaskets catalog (No. 902-06) includes a wide range of new Fel-Pro sealing solutions, including 33 additional PermaTorqueMLS performance head gaskets covering small-block and big-block Chevrolet, Honda 1.6L, Mitsubishi 2.0L, Toyota V8 and other popular engine platforms.

The exclusive PermaTorqueMLS head gasket design - featuring multiple layers of fully-hardened stainless steel, precise sealing beads and a proprietary aftermarket coating - allows for lateral and vertical motion of the cylinder head without compromising sealing performance. These gaskets helped seal 18 wins and 19 pole-position starts during the 2005 NASCAR Nextel Cup season. PermaTorqueMLS gaskets also sealed Kurt Busch's engines in the #97 Ford's run to the 2004 Nextel Cup championship.

This catalog introduces Fel-Pro solid-steel-core intake manifold gaskets, a new level of sealing technology engineered for high-vacuum racing engines, as well as performance applications that have a long service life, such as street machines, recreational and tow vehicles.

The catalog also features expanded coverage of Fel-Pro premium molded-rubber valve cover and oil pan gaskets, which utilize a rigid core and steel compression limiters that make installation faster and easier. These gaskets are well suited to applications that are serviced more frequently.

Another new technology featured in the catalog is the Fel-Pro PTFE rear main seal, which helps eliminate contamination and reliability concerns related to conventional molded seals. The Fel-Pro seal's patented "lay-down" style lip and PTFE material provide superior resistance to leaks caused by extreme temperatures, chemical attack, abrasive clutch dust, and score marks on the crankshaft.

The Fel-Pro product team has re-engineered the catalog's application section, with all available sealing options organized by engine model for a faster, more intuitive lookup. The new catalog includes a dramatically expanded technical information section featuring detailed part specifications to help counter professionals, engine builders and other customers choose the right gasket design and material for each performance application.

The catalog's cylinder head-to-gasket interchange section helps the user quickly identify the correct Fel-Pro performance head gasket and intake and exhaust manifold gaskets for each of the hundreds of aftermarket cylinder heads. Fel-Pro has also developed a comprehensive illustration section featuring detailed images of each performance head gasket, intake manifold gasket, exhaust header gasket and valve cover gasket.
