ok so my post got deleted because I guess I put wtb in front of it lol. I need a headgasket, but I need advice on where to go and which ones to get. I can't find anything searching google. Anyone have any links for me?

Also, can I use a cosmetic head gasket? My friend has one he will give me a deal on. I will be staying fairly stock, probably around 12 psi on a T28 and around 250whp. Let me know what you guys find and what advice you have for me..

I believe MeanGreenS13 had some problems with his Cosmetic.

I think an OEM headgasket should be fine.

I used a Felpro, and it sealed up fine.

Just make sure your surfaces are thoroughly cleaned and properly decked.You can also use that copper spray, if you feel the need to.

cometic is still on and seeping from the head oil only, other than that no issues. Felpro is going on with copper spray in less than 14 days.

Will this Gasket set fit everything on the CA18det RWD/16port; such as, the valve cover, head gasket, E.Mani., I.Mani., thermostat, etc.?
