head gasket designs Always lots of questions as to which head gasket. And the usual GM MLS etc apply. Given cost and how effective they are, it makes perfect sense.
But from a technical standpoint. Which is better if any, and why ?
Cometic, GM, other ? 3 layer, 5 layer ?
Ive some TFS packaged gaskets here too, which I think are just 3 layer Cometics.
GM 3 layers made in Germany and 5 layer GM made in Canada.
The GM gaskets also have a slight coating, I assume this is to assist waterway sealing. So surely this is worth having over a different brand ?
