I have a first generation inline pro headgasket. Which was 3 layers made in house...the new one is four layer and I believe is outsourced. I have had no problems with my 3 layer one. Though I have seen a few issues with the newer one I am sure it is a good gasket as well...I have never heard of the prospeed, do you have a link or something? I know nu Image has their own gasket now too.

You might want to also look into Cometic Hp thicker headgaskets.

I got a stock bore 84mm cometic .043 gasket for ya. 55 bucks shipped. I paid over 100 for this thing.

I dont have stock bore anymore so I dont need it.

eee, this has been covered a lot, i just know quite a few people that have had many problems with their shop and also quite a few lawsuits to boot, we're not getting into it though.

I would suggest Cometic HP line of gaskets. Use it just as long as your not step decked or o-ringed....if thats the case, which it probably is if your still stock blocked then use the standard Cometic MLS gasket.

Stock bore is 81mm. Stock thickness is .030
