Top End Rebuild Gasket Kit   

for 883cc Sportster

Pkg: 1 kit  - Part #38000vs  (replaces 17032-86)

This is a complete Top End Gasket Kit with rubber rocker box gaskets. The head gaskets are manufactured by gasket maker Victor Reinz. They are graphite on a steel core, and have a steel Fire Ring.

Cylinder Base gaskets are fibre and will give you a good seal - rubber on both sides of a steel core. If you prefer Foamet base gaskets instead, just ask us to substitute and we'll take care of it.

Rocker Base gaskets are 1-piece style rubber-coated, embossed SLS (Single Layer Steel) to give you a really great seal. We also have  Foamet (rubber on both sides of flat steel) and can include the foamet instead if you prefer.

Actual Photo   The photo with this listing is an actual picture of the parts included in this kit (except that the rocker base gasket material is SLS instead of Foamet/steel). Although the color of some O-rings or gaskets may change on occasion, they will still be the high quality you expect.

Before we ship this kit, we will repack it very carefully so that every single gasket and seal arrives at your door safely and in perfect condition. All flat gaskets are shipped Flat! and will not get bent.

Discounted Shipping for additional gaskets. We will combine the shipping charges for any other gaskets, seals or O-rings ordered and shipped together with this kit.

Our Motorcycle Products are brand new and made to high standards that meet or exceed OEM specifications.
