Just got some more head gaskets.

The type i have got are: payen AF470

It seems very good quality compared to funny gaskets i have used in the past, is this what everyone else uses?

Sold the turbo and seeing what the C20XE can do!

Near Lincoln

Most people i think use the payen bk450 for fast road applications and turbo's.

So if everyone is using BK 450, what have i got??

I have just laid my hands on 2 origional metty turbo gaskets so i will be using these not the one previously stated. How do these compare to the one you guys use? (i have never ever had probs with these before)

Forgotten more than most ever know

I have used the silver coloured TAM 1521 or something since day one in my 1380 turbo with 100 % reliability. I also used it in my Cooper S. Splendid gasket.

Current turbo gasket is GUG something and is black in colour. Don?t know any idea how they last.

I think the payen bk 450 and the rover gug.. are the same and they can be used and abused on all the lbe with confidence in 1380, 1430 and high boost turbo application .
