Key Features:

Crafted with advanced materials and precision engineering, the Cometic Fiber Intake End Seals Kit delivers dependable performance and durability. Key features include:

• Chemically blown, compounded nitrile synthetic rubber bonded to an aluminum core for enhanced strength
• Temperature resistance exceeding 250°F to withstand demanding engine conditions
• High recovery rate of 85% to maintain a tight seal under thermal cycling
• Strong torque retention to prevent loosening without the need for gasket sealers
• Direct fitment for front and rear intake manifold crossovers on Chrysler Magnum V8 engines
• Manufactured to meet and exceed original equipment manufacturer (OEM) specifications
• Eliminates the need for re-torqueing after installation, saving time and effort
• Resistant to oil, coolant, and other automotive fluids for long-term reliability

Construction & Design:

The intake end seals utilize AFM material, a chemically blown nitrile synthetic rubber that is bonded to a rigid aluminum core. This combination provides an optimal balance of flexibility and structural integrity, allowing the seals to conform tightly to mating surfaces while resisting deformation. The aluminum core ensures consistent sealing pressure and durability under high-temperature engine environments.

Designed specifically for Chrysler Magnum V8 engines, the seals are precision-cut to the exact thickness of .188 inches, ensuring a perfect fit and reliable sealing performance. The advanced nitrile compound offers excellent resistance to heat, oil, and chemical exposure, making these seals suitable for demanding automotive applications.

Installation & Fitment:

This intake end seals kit is designed for straightforward installation with no modifications required. It fits a wide range of Dodge and Jeep vehicles equipped with Chrysler Magnum V8 engines, including:

• Jeep Grand Cherokee (1993–1998)
• Dodge Ram 1500 (1994–2003)
• Dodge Ram 2500 (1994–2002)
• Dodge Ram 3500 (1994–2002)
• Dodge Dakota (1997–2003)
• Dodge Durango (1998–2003)

The seals install on both the front and rear crossover sections of the intake manifold, providing a comprehensive sealing solution. Because the AFM material maintains strong torque retention and does not require gasket sealers or re-torqueing, installation is simplified and reliable.
