Im looking for a gasket set for the upper part of my engine i already have a flepro bottom end gasket kit and a cosmetic head gasket you get with the arp head stud package on extremepsi. Any on know where to get the upper engine gasket set without the head gasket?
 
In all the years I have been into DSM's I have never seen an upper gasket kit without one. You might be able to contact a vendor like JNZtuning and see if they will sell you a kit minus the headgasket at a lower price.
If not, you could do what I did when I had the same problem. Buy a kit and sell the headgasket on here.
 
If you get the cheapo gasket kit, as said, its cheap enough that the kit coming with a head gasket wont matter, though the valve cover and head gaskets in the cheap kits are of questionable quality, which is enough for me to avoid buying a top end kit like that. The head gaskets have been known to fail, and the rubber used to make the valve cover gaskets has been known to become hard and brittle, causing severe oil leakage in a relatively short period of time.
To be fair, the paper gaskets in the cheap kits are decent though. Personally, Id buy a Felpro valve cover gasket set, and buy the cheapo kit for the paper gaskets only and throw away the valve cover and head gasket that comes with the cheap kit, theyre just not worth using...
