Gaskets Suck!
If I never see another gasket kit with my name on it I will be eternally happy. I just replaced every gasket on my new stroker because the machinist put the wrong ones on. The reason I did this is because he used the generic brand from ^&*()^) and I figure if I want it done right I have to do it myself. I.E. Fel-Pro blue lines. Yea their not 100 bucks a set but their 100 times better than ^&*()%%. Now I am tied and need to go to bed. Just needed to vent...not literally!
Kevin,

I wouldn't bother with much other than GM or Fel-Pro gaskets, and sometimes the Fel-Pros are not "all that". I had a hard lesson in gaskets a long time ago, and learned why Fel Pro has been in business for so long. There are some places that aren't quite as critical, like the water outlet, rocker covers, and exhaust flanges, but why take chances anywhere?
