    Default Aftermarket VRS gasket kits vs more expensive ones

    I finally found my car's problem (hesitation, etc). The inlet manifold bolts were quite loose and pretty much all the gaskets were leaking.

    But I took the heads off to get them checked anyway, all good. But now I've noticed a big difference between the original graphite head gaskets and these ezyfit aftermarket ones. They don't look as tough as the old ones.

    Anyone have any bad or good experiences with them. Sprints offered a dearer alternative, I'm wondering if it might be worth changing them over for the good ones!?!?!?

    hey man....ive had to replace headgaskets in my last 2 commodores.......I used ezyfit on my vp....and i had no problems with the installing and running.....i just recently had to rebuild my vx and i used the brand G-torque...and i found that the holes in the actual head gasket where the pushrods are supposed to feed through dont line up that well, so i found myself doing a bit of pushing and bending.... other than that, the running is fine...
