Fel pro head gasket

[330SMG]

I have a nice leaky Victor Renz head gasket. I am wondering if anyone used a fel pro gasket and had any issues or do I spring the extra $70 for the BMW. Thanks

Review the Metric Mechanics M20 modified Head Gasket, has improved water flow. Cost $140.00

^ all they do is drill holes in a stock gasket. it's not worth $140 or really even necessary.

get the stock gasket.

The OEM gasket is about $67, the Goetze is about $32, and the Elring is about $25.

Stick with one of those as suggested.

FelPro and Victor Reinz are both Federal Mogul gaskets re-branded. I had a customer bring one in and can confirm the FP and VR were identical. We didn't use it and wouldn't suggest anyone else did, either.

yeah this, it does stuff all IMO. if you have cooling issue there is something faulty in the cooling system
