Need a mother ------ headgasket

Having problems finding a cosmetic headgasket for my dohc zc. Found one of the hks ones on one website, but god damn $210 for a ------- headgasket is crazy. Anyone bought one recently? If so how much did you pay and where did you get it?

Why do you need a cometic so bad?

Get a Y8 MLS and be done.

I just need something that will hold boost and withstand some abuse more than the stock gasket.
What do you mean " Y8 MLS".

Do you mean one for a d16y8?

just go to advance auto or autozone, they carry it. I know permatex makes one kinda, and there may be intimidators. I've used it on turbo flanges and ----, seems to work well, hope it works on my motor when i get it working.

MLS=multi layer steel

Just use an OEM headgasket ******

Re: Need a mother ------ headgasket

ah my bad on the Y8 suggestion then...

Any MLS headgasket will hold boost just fine. Get some ARPs if you're worried about it or having problems, you don't need a cometic.
