Title: Original Head Gasket Material?
Post by: NTRCOOL on August 19, 2009, 12:43:28 PM

I was tearing my motor down and discovered that the head gasket material was copper core with fiber. Does anyone know where I can get these again since the felpro examples look chumpy compared to what I took off. Any advice would be appreciated.

I just paid $178 for a pair. The salesman said the part # for the vin T was the same as the vin V... :icon_eek:
