im going to rebuild my engine soon, and i would like to know what head gasket to get. i have blown 2 stock head gaskets, and now im looking for something stronger. I checked the SBR website, and they have some good choices for 100$

1. Cometic
2. Mitsubishi 4 layer Head gasket
3. SCE copper head gasket

which one would you recomend guys? and which one has best sealing properties?

Thanks. :thumb:
 
mitsu 4-layer has been able to hold up to 500hp, cost only 90 bucks or something

if u want something better that costs more coin ide go with an hks headgasket, but it cost over 200 bucks. it can hold whatever amount of power ude throw at it.

## gonna wanna get ## block o-ringed if u want to be even more safe, or if u want to run big boost. but o-ringing is for cars making big hp's running high boost.
 
im not planning in going more than 500 HP. my goal is actually around 400, so i guess that the mitsu 4 layer one should hold alright. Thanks for the advice guys. ;)
 
Just to make it safe i would go for the HKS MLS Gasket or the Cometic HP gasket it depends on how much boost you are planning to run:thumb:
 
The multi layer is the best go to dsmparts i got one there cheap and it can hold all the boost from my hx-40.
