Hi

Are cometic head gaskets worth the money?
What are the pro's & cons?

Cheers Matt

 

Standard ford Payen head gasket every time!!!


That should be made a sticky

 

as above

 

I was planning to use one as im doing a 2.1 16v not sure i will bother now

 

I've heard alot people say use a standard ford gasket!!
Its also a lot cheaper aswell!! im going to be using a stage 3 turbo etc.
Will a standard ford gasket still be with higher boost levels?

Cheers Matt

 

yeah its what most of the 300bhp big power boys use 30 psi

 

Are you saying a standard ford gasket will take up to 300bhp & 30 psi?

 

We will find out soon!! Mine's soon going back together and a standard gasket is what I am likely to use.

I have run 300bhp prior to this on the standard gasket, but this time we should see 350bhp and lots of boost.
