Re: anybody use Autozone head gaskets?
have used several gasket, and gasket kits for d and b series. Never had a problem... and to quench any bad mounthing, i said "several" because i have had to open my head for various reason, and more often than not, i was not able to re-use the gasket as it had expanded... lol

I use Felpro parts, they sell them at Advance. I got an entire engine gasket set from advance for a d16y8 for $112. It has exhaust/intake manifold gaskets, head gasket, water connection rings, valve cover stud grommets, and a lot of other o-rings and such. I've used Felpro on my other cars, and they are pretty decent gaskets.

Re: anybody use Autozone head gaskets?
If the head is properly seated and torqued down then there is nothing wrong with using a cheap head gasket.
