Please tell me I have got this right?
« on: 04 January 2010, 00:03:45 »

I have just bought the following item

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=380181564990&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT

I remember MDTM saying that the seller Trechii being recommended for head gaskets.

I just can't believe how cheap it is?? I have been delaying sorting my car because money has been tight but if i had known they were this cheap I would have sorted it before now!!  :-? :-?

not quite I dont think.

Trechii are good for head gaskets....

remember you have 2 heads, that link is for just 1 I think....
you also need the bolts which they can supply but you need to ring them

get genuine cam cover gaskets from vaux though, and the later multilayer metal manifold gaskets.

Sorry should have said that I got the other gasket, manifold gaskets, head bolts and stem seals off people on here so just needed one head gasket but I thought they were so much more expensive!!!

I had had a few beers last night when I typed so that might explain the half story that I told!! ::) ::) ::)
