I'm rebuilding my 5s and want to use the metal headgasket instead of the crap one in my gasket set, does anyone have the part number? While i'm here, there won't be any issues using it on an older 5s, right? Mine is a 95.
Thanks |

The oem composite gasket left indentations on my 94 5SFE head. Like pockmarks everywhere.
Also if you think about it a motor with a blown head gasket is much more likely to have overheated and warped, not to mention nearly 20 years of heat cycles. |
