You are bidding on a new Supersteel Cosworth Turbo YB WRC spec multi-layer metal cylinder head gasket. Standard 93mm bore and crushed thickness
The YB Supersteel™ gasket is priced at Ł225.00 + VAT RRP.
Condition is as new.Happy bidding!
I do have a few for sale"

cometic are pretty good, shouldnt need to cost you much over a ton for a new one though, i paid less than that for the last one i bought, which was for a calibra turbo engine, so same sort of things as a cossie one
