    Want to know why you would choose to run a cometic head gasket over a felpro (locker ring) or other felpro marine head gaskets?

    Cometic is the latest and greatest.
    Fel Pro would have worked but we are building this thing bullet proof. One of these days when shit happens and the head gasket would have normally failed. The Cometic will hold up.

    Call them yourself and I will bet your sold on their customer service alone.
    Cometic Gaskets are number one hands down! Finanly someone else has come up with something improved.

    I'm sure he wanted the engine sealed. Felpro is the only gasket that after a season you can undo the head studs and pull the head off. Now ask yourself. . . .was that sealed?
    Cometic is good stuff, the new SCE composite is good, the best was the old Detroit stuff, but since they have been swallowed up by Corteco, they have destroyed the Detroit stuff.

    Cometic's are the shit no dought(just make sure you remove the rivets)!.For a 12.5 motor the FelPro 1017-1 gasket is perfect, and yes they seal and you can pop the heads off no problem, that's the way they are made. In fact if they came off clean they can be reused, I've used them 3 times with no leakeage whatsoever!..

    Hello every one,
    This piston was in my race boat at 22 psi and the gasket was fine!
