Default who would have these head gaskets in stock?

i've had a hell of a time getting ahold of these gaskets. the first company sent me the wrong ones completely(but fixed the situation quickly). the second company, who will remain nameless(thunder racing), gave me the run-around for almost a month while making promise after promise before finally telling me they LOST MY ******* ORDER yesterday. so **** them and their complete lack of customer service.

the gasket i need is a cometic H1518040S or any .040 gasket compatable with a 4" bore.

i really really need to get this car running this weekend, and i'd rather not use factory thickness .051 gaskets.

HELP

Just from a quick Google search, Texas speed, ws6store, rpm speed and a few others carry them. Not sure if they are in stock or not.

I don't have the 4.00" bore gasket in stock, but we do have some in 4.035" bore which works for most any application where the 4.00" bore would....the only drawback is the .0x drop in static compression, but you'll never notice or miss it.

I ordered my custom gaskets from WS6 store. Delivery is about 2 weeks from order, and shipping is free!

That's not bad for custom gaskets.
