Default Re: Head Gasket

Not really good at holding boost or the extreme temperatures of the turbo motors.

Best headgaskets will have a stainless steel fire ring around the cylinder. The stockers, Cometics, and some of the Victor gaskets work the best.

Steel gaskets work well on the earlier hot air cars ...
