head gasket brand

Post by Glenpointe »

I need to replace the head gasket on my 2009 GT. Besides OEM, any high quality brand that I can substitute for OEM gasket?
Thanks,
Glen

Fel-Pro has always been a good brand. Don't forget to replace the the torque to yield head bolts too. Make sure both surfaces are flat and not wrapped. If needed have the surfaces machined at a automation machine shop.
