Curious why 'must' you have the Apexi gasket? There are plenty quality metal gasket manufacturers out there that could make one for you. It might even be cheaper. If you're interested in at least speaking to some of them let me know and i'll dig up their info for you.
Yes you are correct there are many subsitutions when it comes to metal head gaskets and yes they are cheaper. Many people are going with the cometic and it works just fine. However after a few discussions with Scott who has never given me bad advise and a little research on my own it appears that the Apexi is by far the strongest and will work best for my application. I could settle for something less and get this project done sooner seeing as the head gasket is what is holding me up but I'm not willing to give in just yet. I'm looking for major performance with major reliability.
