well if i got it i definatly would not use the headgasket... but everything else like the valve cover, oil pan, and all the other smaller gaskets look like theyd be okay i mean there just rubber right you cant screw that up.. if i put them on with some rtv or something they should be fine right?? is there any one thats actualy bought a gasket kit from them??
