x2. it keeps your head gasket perfectly in place. you shouldn't take chances like your buddy.

good for him. if your head gasket is out of place by just a little, you could be mixing fluids and smoking like a champ. you need 2. would you really wanna have to pull the head back off and buy a new gasket (if that happened) just because you didn't wanna find new pins? aint worth it if you ask me.
