Does anyone have a picture of a SVT throttle body gasket and a standard gasket.

I'm going back over what this looked like when I cleaned the TB and am unsure if I put the correct one in. I believe the one I put in had a notch at the very bottom on the interior passageway. It also had a rectangular hole cut-out that matched up with the UIM on the bottom side of the gasket. Although, the one I took off did not have this rectangular hole and there is a space in the UIM for this hole in the gasket. Aslo, the old gasket had three different notches forming around the bottom that when put on actually went inside the throttle body passageway.

Is this a difference in manufacturing/brands?

Thanks!

The SVT gasket is definitely different from the standard gasket.

And how would you know?

SCSVT, listen to Jeb. Nothing beats experience.

I was only inquiring because the gasket itself has noticeable design differences. Meaning: a cut-out here and a notch there where the older one did not.

Is the inner diameter big enough? Does it cover everthing that it needs to? Does everything line up? Is it thick enough or robust enough to handle the exhaust gases from the EGR passages? It is not uncommon to have some differences from one maker to another so you need to investigate if it will function as it should.

There is a good chance that the old one you removed was for a non-SVT. I have a TB gasket from Team Ford for the 96 Duratec and it does not have the notch. So you might have the correct one now.

Edit. Non-SVT Duratec TB gasket F5RZ9E936A that I got. Houston, we have a problem! This is the same part number as the one listed in the UIM/LIM rebuild for the SVT but for sure, it doesn't have that notch for the SVT that you posted.

Yeah, this is why I ended up with the SVT gasket for my SE in the first place. The writeup that I took the part numbers from assumed that the rebuild was on an SVT. I know this was supposedly fixed in one how-to, but maybe not, or not everywhere, at least.

Yeah, but I think that it was the one on the site itself and not the forum that I had used. I don't know if everything got updated everywhere...that's a problem for CEG.
