We just recieved my brothers .72 H22A4 head gasket. Don't ask why we went so thick, it's a long story that I am tired of repeating. Although if your intrested and hate JG Engine Dunamics then ask! But yea we recieved it today after 3-4 long weeks, but no complaints. We recieved exactly what they said and man I wish I would have known about these people before. **** HKS head gaskets. They are way overpriced compared to what you get from Cometic. This company is a definate RECOMMEND on my list!

Hey schwett I guess you are not doing the o-ring thing right? What is the other type decked or something? I am feeling lazy and don't want to look up the stock thickness of the gasket. Did you go for more or less compression with the cometics?

I've always had good luck with cometic motorcycle gaskets. Glad to see them start getting known in the car business as well

no, i didn't think the o-ring was necessary. step deck is the other kind. the stock headgasket is .032, or so everyone tells me. i went for VERY slightly more compression (probably not even measurable) since the pistons are a bit lower than i might like.
