I usually get full sets from a dealer or an engine rebuilder(someone who bets their warranty with part quality). Be prepared to pay more if you buy from the dealer though.

I've had bad luck in the past buying full kits from big parts stores, they sometimes are missing parts or just seem lower quality overall.

I buy mine from eBay seller gaskets4less. Seller ships fast and I can get an entire set for less than what a single head gasket costs me at the local Pep Boys or other auto parts store. The gasket set is from Evergreen Automotive. It includes every single little gasket, and the exhaust manifold gasket and head gasket are MLS. They hold well the turbo abuse. Never had one fail on me, and I abuse my engine. I highly recommend that seller.

Just passing on the good stuff. smile.gif
