#33582, "Victor Reinz HEAD GASKET?"




          

Has anyone used this head gasket? I have one and I'm wondering if there are any problems with it or any sealants or anything I should use with it.

I think that HG is carried by Carquest part stores. The one I bought for my lady's Neon was multi-layer and has worked fine. They are kinda expensive but work fine.

Shit is all apart. Typical...

It's an MLS type gasket and it has a teflon (I think) seal around it. The instructions say that no sealant is needed. I plan on using it in a stage 3+ turbo application.

I'm all for trying new things but I don't think I would be the first one to try that HG on a stage 3+ application. I would use the one that the other stage 3+ guy's use.... the stock replacement MLS. But if you already bought it then you may as well use it, just check it regularly to make sure it holds.



I edited to the wiki!

parts have to meet standards that meet or exceed manufacturers specs
