Felpro makes a pretty good VC gasket for a 2.6, but you'll thank yourself later if you can get an OE. It's fatter and seals up far better than the Felpro.

On my turbo engine, I initially put the Felpro on for a test fit and didn't like the fact that I was going to have to use more than generous smears of RTV in several places. In fact, the one I had wouldn't stay in the grove on the VC without being glued in.

Ordered an OE and had it in two days - $9 - and it fit like it was supposed to. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

Just a suggestion if you can spare the time.
