Alot of people go on the he said she said shit and I want to know how many people follow directions and install the gasket the way its supposed to. No one would actually want to go back and retorque head bolts so I would like to know how many people actually do it. Figure the more expensive gasket should just work straight up like OEM and GE. A copper gasket can be compressed and takes shape easier. I figure if both my head and block are freshly surfaced and I follow the directions my Cometic 3mm gasket will work. Ill keep you guys posted.

This is what is said that needs to be done.

1. Copper Spray it
2. Install properly
3. Torque the head bolts to specified torque
4. Let car run at operating temp for a while go back
5. Check and retorque head bolts after running at operating temp
