well... that comment was mine and you're right i didn't know how to do it properly. but thats the point, why not just use a decent gasket and bin the whole concept of wire rings [/quote]

I've known many people that have and still do use this dependant on which application the engines being used for!


decent head gasket??? name me any make of gasket that IS 100% fail prove!
