Hey my head gasket blew. I am trying to replace it with a metal one. Which one should I go with Cometic(cheaper) or Greddy(expensive), also the sizes im looking at 1.2mm or 1.4mm? in addtion and the bore size on stand is 86 is standard. Most greddy gaskets bore sizes are 87mm or 88mm. Please I need help with which one to go with? Also, getting an after market intake manifold good to go with?

I dont have personal experience but ive heard of several people havin problems with cometics.. but it could have been due to incorrect machining (or lack of).. people typically have decent gains from the greddy intake manis.

i installed the cometic MLS gasked on my SR and never had an issue while beating the hell out of it with the 2871R on there.

What size cosmetic gasket did you get? the 1.2 or 1.3, or 1.4mm also what was the bore size of your gasket? I have a stock SR20det no rebuilt. So i was wondering which one is the best to go with as far as size?
