When I poured the antifreeze in it came right back out the head gaskets. I complained to the kit company and they sent victor gaskets. No problems with them. I am glad they leaked to start with rather than 1 year down the road and messed up more than my schedule. [Reply]  [No Email]

The old saying," I'd rather explain the price than apologize for the quality. Having said that, Autolite plugs are now made in China, & I saw "made in Bangladesh" on TRW valve parts. WTF????

The gasket kit contained head gaskets individually packaged with a made in China sticker on them. I did not use them and ordered some Fel Pro. Rod. [Reply]  [No Email]

The imports are junk, don't waste your time and money. The head gaskets from Case are Victor gaskets ( at least this is what I have seen with direct injected 401,451,504 engines) I order Victor headsets with my engine kits. I have used Fel-pro head gaskets before also, and they have worked fine. [Reply]  [No Email]
