#96244, "Engine/Headgasket questions"


          

Allright i got a few questions... its has recently come to my attention that i have a leaky pukey headgasket, as its puking a little antifreeze and a fair amount of oil down the back of the block. So anyway my first question is this: whats the best brand of headgasket to go with? I've heard that the metal headgaskets are the best but i wasnt sure if there is any brand in particular i should go with.. Otherwise im just gonna snag a FeelPro set. The next questions range on building up an engine.. ive recently acquired another 420A engine that i plan to build up to run around 13psi daily... what should i look for as far as parts go and more specifically who/where can i find a reputable & decent priced retailer for parts such as forged pistons, rods, etc. And also what about heads... ive heard of everybody talking about PTCruiser lifters (or rockers i cant remember right off hand) and i just wanna know whats up with that. I was also wondering if i would be better off with stage 1 or 2 cams... looking for advice from people who have both. Thanks in advance guys.
