Hi,I would double check with the supplier that it is really a Reinz Grp A gasket included in the set - the one in the picture definately isn't a Reinz gasket. The Reinz gasket is dark grey with a black sealant bead, the pictured gasket is a red sealant bead. Item number 310197372343 shows a genuine Reinz gasket - this isn't a recommendation for the seller, just has a clear picture on there.Regards,MAHLE UK

Get a new ST Cosworth Head gasket from Woodford Garage Motorsport, they were selling genuine gaskets for £50 ish from memory on Ebay.
