Goetze
Avoid anything from BGA like its the plague.
I have used the mellior gasket that K-tec sell for £30 it seems of very good quality or go direct to renault and get OE. As Chip has already said keep away from the BGA and Goetze crap as you will be better of using a cereal box
Goetze arent crap, they are top quality!
Its just the BGA stuff I was saying to avoid, Goetze is what I am suggesting to use.
Where's the best place to get one from
LOL I didn't mean to put Goetze as crap went to edit and I couldn't editOriginally Posted by chip
What about cometic gaskets ?
Cometic gaskets are great, but make sure BOTH surfaces are very flat first IME
So I only tend to use them when I have had the block faced as well as the head.
I've had the head skimmed but the blocks still in the car and I didn't fancy taking it out can I do anything with the block in situe
you could check it with a straight edge, but if its not flat then you are stuck and I wouldnt use a cometic if there is any risk of that, use a goetze one its a lot more forgiving.
