Are Victor Reinz Head Gaskets worth the extra cost?
I'm planning on doing the head gaskets in my 2001 Disco this fall. Are Victor Reinz head gaskets worth the extra cost? There seems to be quiet a difference in price compared to a standard HG set.
The HG brand really isn't the issue as all composite gaskets are pretty much the same. It's all about the install, making sure the heads are absolutely clean along with the surface of the block. Then the torque and sequence specs, waiting between the first 15FT LB 20min, then first 90 turn, wait 20min, and do the final 90min turn and wait 20min with TTY bolts. If you don't do that properly = HG brand is irrelevant as she'll more than likely need the job done again.
