Stoffregen Motorsports Posted October 27, 2019 Report Share Posted October 27, 2019 Has anybody tried HKS? I have used them before and the gaskets work great. I know they used to do custom gaskets, and I am pretty sure they used to make an L4 gasket. I know they used to make an L6 gasket, but not 100% sure about the L4. Quote Link to comment
distributorguy Posted October 29, 2019 Report Share Posted October 29, 2019 (edited) I have an HKS set here. They're ok. I won't call it a sub-par set but its definitely not a premium set. It'll keep the oil in, most of it anyway. Duax, I talked to one of the the Cometic guys at PRI last Winter who said he'd make sure that if I sent in a gasket, they could modify their 6 cylinder platform and make it work for the L20b. New production technology, so its worth a shot. They definitely want to expand their product line! Edited October 29, 2019 by distributorguy Quote Link to comment

distributorguy Posted October 31, 2019 Report Share Posted October 31, 2019 I'm using a mix of whatever was left over from the 6 or 8 sets I've purchased in the last 3 years, plus a Nismo head gasket. I just glue them up good. The old Blue rear main seal is the best fitting one - the orange ones are a loose fit in comparison, but they work. I think what I have laying around now is ITM, Mahle, 1 set with an eagle on the package not made in USA, and a long missing brand I can't recall. I just buy whatever RockAuto has, hopefully with the square port exhaust gaskets. They're getting more difficult to find. 1 Quote Link to comment
