When did Ford stop producing the proper gasket?? I have bought one in the last few weeks?

The standard gasket is more than up to the job, so if you can still get that, I would say there is no need for a Ł25 one!!

PMSL at this quote from his other auction for CVH headbolts......

These DO NOT stretch like the crappy Ford ones, these keep the head held down firmly like it should be!
Making it sound as though the Ford bolts stretch because they are crap!!

They are stretch bolts for a reason.

I dunno about you but i would never buy headbolts like that off ebay. Whats to say he hasnt just gone down his local fasteners and selected some cap headed bolts that look simalar to the OE items.
