dogman1955 Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 :)I'm doing a valve job on a 1998 legacy ej 25dohc.I'm using Fel-pro head gaskets which have a blue coating on one side , does the blue side contact the head or the block? Should I use Indian head shellac? If I use Indian head should I coat both sides of the gasket? Any and all advice will be treasured. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fairtax4me Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 The gaskets only fit one way. Do not put any kind of sealer on a head gasket for these engines. They should be installed totally dry. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idosubaru Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 look at the oil ports in the corners and you'll see how/why they're one directional. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
