Not sure on the makup of those Felpro's

But many many years ago I used Felpro on my 3.9. Compared to Payen or OEM 4.6 gaskets, those old composite Felpro's were complete dung

And they were a total nightmare to clean off the block/heads too !

OEM Payen 4.6's usually come off spotlessly clean.

anyone used these ones from RPI?

Doesn't look like as much metal between the cylinders like on the elrings though, but RPI do recommend them, so should be good?

The elrings do seem to have more metal between the cylinders as seen here...so maybe these are better?

Whilst difficult to tell from a photo, and whether the photo is actually the parts.

This full set doesnt look like bad value, and pic looks like decent quality items

Either way, stick with Payen or OEM.

Elrings may be the same, cant comment as I've never used them.
