felpro.

gasket failure is not the fault of the gasket. Detonation/lean condition(IMPROPER TUNE) cause this.

obviously, at some point you need more than a dang ol' felpro, and cometics are great for re-use.

i like my felpro loc-wire head gaskets, i'm only running 12:1 with TFS head, and a huge cam and a 175 shot, havent had any issues since the rebuild (Dam broken Valve), i mean the seal great. Vince what octane did you have to run on that?

Costs about 10 bucks and is proven to over 500hp at the motor. 2.3t gasket that is.

I installed a set of Cometics on my new engine and I haven't had a single problem with them yet.
