Just curious if this is any good mainly in the head gasket and head bolt department.
Is there a better way to buy these parts?
Just trying to fix a very minor head gasket leak.

If im not using ARP bolts and Cometic gaskets then i will only use felpro or victor reinz gaskets and bolts. try contacting a local automotive machine shop and ask them for a kit. I would not purchase head gaskets and bolts on ebay. way way way to much counterfeit **** on ebay these days. just my 2 cents though

Nothing wrong with it as it's made by GM...

Just a minor correction, some are saying "made by GM" Very unlikely. Now "made FOR GM" I would go along with.
Many OEM parts are very good, have to consider target service life of a OEM engine is measured in hundreds of thousands of miles. There is often a lot of overkill built into engine components.

I did replace bearings and rings, I used a set of coated race bearings supplied by Erik at HKE and the rings were supplied in the wiseco piston kit. I just bought all of the gaskets and head bolts on rockauto.com. Good catch though.
