Group A head gasket for S2 - pros and cons?
I'm getting a full gasket set for my engine when I rebuild it, and I was looking at the set which includes the Group A headgasket over the standard one...
Anyone got any experience with these and are they worth the extra?
Any help appreciated

Ford gasket- direct from Ford, always- Mine uses a ford gasket.
For an example- it was started on sat afternoon and as soon as she was warmed up we ran a bar through it- today she's had up to 28psi.

Genuine ford ERST is best.
I used a Grp A on a 1600 cvh and the gasket bore is too big, its a Felpro one from a 1.9 usa engine.
It is the corect size for a 2.0zvh though. Don't know at what boost it becomes a liability though, I'm going to run 10psi and keep it safe.
