    Autozone because their the cheapest, and most easily obtainable. ANY headgasket will do the job just fine IF the job is done right the first time.

    OEM personally (golden eagle is also OEM but modified to accept the bigger bores).

    Cometic usually is really good with other makes like Nissan and Mitsu, but i personally dont like them on hondas
