I would like to know a good place to order Cometic's Head Gasket. I am from canada but if they ship with usps that might be good as well, forgot about UPS last time I order something they rip me off, bought something about 50$ paid 40$ us of shipping ridiculus

Thanks for your help hopefuly this will hold 20 psi and plus

I think we'd all like to know.

I called them a couple weeks ago, and got pretty much nowhere with them. The only CA headgasket they have listed is for an 87mm bore which I believe is the CA20.

US Postal Service RAPES all the other shipping companies when it comes to international shipping. I sent a Z32 MAF to Finland and it was like $9 for 3-day shipping.

Ok.... drumroll.....

THEY HAVE IT! They just released it last week. They said its been in the works now for about a month and they are sick of CA18 owners calling in about it. They just finished the tooling and its ready to go. As pulsardet said, it's $97.30 + $10-15 shipping. They are made to order, so don't worry about stock. The part # H2207051S that he gave is correct. And as for thickness, just call them when you are ready to order and tell them what thickness you want, and they will do it. Order away!

Cometic's # is 1-800-752-9850

Couple of month ago I call them to see if they were doing some custom head gasket, and yes they do, for about 120 us, you were sending a blown Head gasket and about a 1 month later they send the new one... The day I decide to send the old unit, they just to me, now they do stock them ahhaha Lucky guest :P

OUCH! I guess I'll quit complaining. I just put a stocker in my motor. No way was I gonna lay down that kinda dough for an aftermarket one. Oh well, at least if I ever blow this one, I know that I can get a good replacement!

man, i thought it was going to be easy getting a HG from partsource, canadian tire or anywhere local, and it turned out they don't even carry them anymore. i guess i'll have to give Cometic in the morning if Piston Ring doesn't have it.

Here down in quebec the head gasket is like 120$ canadian but for 100$ us you have the cometic one, so for the price go for the cometic. Basicly both gasket are the same price execpt you need to pay shipping.

ok for all the canadian people here, i just placed my order. Here's all the information you need: to order one you have to call (440) 354-0777 , the 1-800 number doesnt work from canada. The parts number for the 1.2mm size the parts number is h2207051S .the last two digits before the letter determines the size, it is in inches, they have .027" all the way up to .120", refer to their catalog for the different sizes http://www.cometic.com/catalogs/AutoCat04.pdf right now theres about a two week wait time. And the best part.... It costs $119.00 canadian dollars shipped to your door with ground shipping.
