the headbolts and headgasket kit are both from Vector. I didnt think they didnt need replacing so i bought them. i actually bought the car from an older english man that sold it to me running with overheating problems. his daughter got in the car and revved the piss out of it from what he told me. then white smoke started emancipating from the exhaust. he replaced the radiator and waterpump and since that was obviously not the problem it continued to overheat and thats when he had it taken to a shop to get checked out and sure enough they told him it was a head gasket issue. at that time he decided to post it on cl and i was the first person to come take a look at the car 30 minutes after he made the post and i was also the first person to purchase the car. i drove it from his house to a gas station down the road and the temps started to increase along with white smoke so from there i parked it and had it towed to my house where it sits in my lovely garage. i want this car to run so bad i will do whatever i need to get it running even if it means pulling a motor from LKQ on a hot and sunny saturday
