Suppliers of headgaskets

Postby sabretooth » Tue May 09, 2006 2:10 pm

Does anyone know of any good suppliers for decent headgaskets? I've fired off an e-mail to Mania, and priced one from Mazda at $142. I know it's a triple layer metal - but holy smokes. $142!!

Sounds about right to me. Oversize bore gasket for my ford clubman engine is about the same. You are better paying for a good gasket than a cheap one, esp with a turbo to complicate matters.

ACL, TODA, Mazda and some other taiwanese one that I can't remember.

I have at least two brand new triple layer steel BP gaskets. PM me if you are after one. I think I have an OEM and an ACL one. 8)
