is £38 p+p for a ford head gasket over priced because i do

so who has the contact number for farriday so i can order my copper head gasket

what head bolt do you use on your s2

 

Payen make the head gaskets for ford.. most motorfactors will be able to order one in for you and they are a lot cheaper!

 

PJM motor sport. Ford head gasket was like £8 + DEL. Not sure if genuine or not

 

burtons maybe expensive but there are not twats!

 

Not when mine was £380

 

Seems a normal price for a ford head gasket.. not a cheaper alternative

 

www.ferriday.co.uk speak to mike top bloke

 

spoke to mike he suggested stayin with the ford gasket for the meantime but PJM AND I say PJM YES PJM just supplied the head gasket for £6 look at my shopping list thread above or below this one

 

Gen ford head gaskets are NOT 8 quid

 

Not sure on quality of any other companies head gaskets, but thats one thing I wouldn't skimp on... its an important part that you want to a good high quality

 

too right andy. I would not put a 6 quid HG on any car nevermind a turbo'd one

 

just paid £32 for mine form Ford always go for genuine Ford kit when t comes to head gaskets

Cheers PaulT

 

The only car i would put a £6 gasket on would be something cheap I was selling quickly...

What boost are you running on your car with this lovely piece of cardboard

 

As well as genuin head gasket.. Ford head bolts as well

 

the head gasket boys is on specail and is a hall paylen which is a standard ford headgasket with out the logo and the bolts are ford bolts too.

 

ford dont make parts they buy them from the same people all the other companys get theres from,i made pas pumps and water pumps for ford,you go to a ford dealer for a water pump then go to unipart dealer for the same pump made by the same people, ie me £30 cheaper thank you very much,cossie head gasket is made by victor reinze in germany you pay more at ford than say pj motorsport and they are the SAME.

ta at least some people have the open mind thing

 

In the past i have used payen, and felpro gaskits and have had no probs
at all. I dont think its to dear though.

 

tbh think its cause some gaskets are shite, the ford ones are very much proven in alot of performance cars


if it would dont change it imo

theres a special way to tighted a head gasket too not the haynes manual way though

 

Someone once told me that his shite branded jeans were made in the same factory as Armani's but just had a different label on em

 

and what way is that ginger

 

i aint sure as its karl that does it and he quite rightly wouldnt tell me


ya might have to get ya wallet out and ask karl


unless ya not running silly boost and then just ask ya tuner for advice


i got paul hills to do mine in the end

 

no im doing the head gasket but what im pointing out is that my cheap head gasket is made by the people who i have been told supply ford so in theory same gasket just with out the expensive robbing logo

 

very true, again cam belts are pritty much the same too

 

considering hwo much ive spent on me engine i didnt mind paying ford a little bit more for knowing i got a gen gasket!

 

basically that little extra your paying gives you that piece of mind that you have got a genuine good quality gasket rather then having that doubt.

 

i gather thats for me,we supplied ford with their parts built on the same line using the same parts as the unipart pumps,so please tell me where the difference is apart from price,we also supplied jag,rover and nissan and unipart also got these parts aswell,a cossie head gasket from woodford is cheaper than fords but still made by the same company with the same machines with the SAME material,i should know cause that company was owned by the company i worked for,its a con,

check out the price of a crank sensor (cossy) from ford & then check out the price ot amber performance. same part both made by webber BIG price difference. come 2 think about it 200 block from ford is about £1400 from cosworth its about £575. ford r robbin b******s

 

yeah but were talking about a gasket! who gives a fook about a 200block!

Were talking like £30! not £1500!

 

i was just makin a point that ford charge more 4 cthe same thing
