Hey guys. I'm giving away a set of high temp o-rings this week on here, my website (Onski Powersports) and Facebook. I need some input back as to how well they work. I've ran them in my setup during a 90 minute XC race and they held up flawlessly with almost no spooge blow-by. I just want to make sure they work well in other random applications so I'm giving some away.
Just comment on here if you want in on the drawing and I'll throw your name in the hat. Doing a set per site so someone on here will get one. I'll probably draw on Thursday of this week so I can send them out before the weekend. Only catch is you have to report back as to how they work and it would be nice if you like my Facebook page too. :) And you have to have a stock flange to put them on. I'm not sure they'll work on aftermarket but I would be willing to give a set out to try that too. Winner will be contacted for shipping info Thursday.

Cool deal! I've been using -134 silicone o-rings for years now on aftermarket flanges with good success and they are cheap, only ~$0.50 a piece. What size o-ring works with the stock flange? I haven't seen one in a while but thought it used a square metal type sealing ring? thanks

They are the square metal. But mine was worn, leaking and pissing me off and I didn't want to fork out the cash for an aftermarket flange so I found these, tried them and they're working on my set up (stock flange, CT Mid pipe). Where do you get -134 at? I'd like to test them out compared to these. Gone through a good few already but most end up melting at some point or turning gooey and not holding shape well.
I have mine set up like this...

Ahh I see you are running an o-ring instead of the stock asbestos sealing ring as well, good idea. I usually pick up a bag or two when I put an order in from mcmaster when I'm running low on o-rings: http://www.mcmaster.com/#9396k155/=uu9ysl

The stock sealing rings your referring to are graphite not asbestos.
