OEM is good, so is the Mitsu metal HG. Get some copper sealant spray and ARP head bolts and you should be all set. Either one works well.

alright i already have arp head bolts in there, i can probably reuse them ?!?!, but i will probably get an OEM one, will they have the metal one at the mitsu dealer?

I have been wondering this too ... my dealership has only 1 gasket listed for our cars and it's NOT the metal one... although they believe it is.

i am actually running a stock 25 dollar head gasket from napa with no sealent and stock head studs that have been untorqued and retorqued over 10 times and its been holding 19 psi on the street, and 22 at the track for 6 months now, i wouldnt recommend it, im just saying so far its been holding up fine, i do have a 3 layer mitsu gasket sitting around ready to go in, when or if it does blow, which is suppose to be about the best u can get and some actually have reused it sucessfully.

SEARCH says Mitsu Metal or Cometic take your pick.

I run the stock fibery mitsu one, and it works awesome. I know people who have used it up to 28 psi without any problems.

In order to use a head gasket like the mitsu metal or the cometic, you need to have perfect head and block sealing surfaces.
