Head gasket set info needed

Post by Tottie »

Hi guys,

I need to by a head gasket set but not sure what and where to buy.

I have a 2l8v ADY (MP9) motor. Do I just buy a normal MP9 gasket set and a seperate 2l metal head gasket? Or do I actually need to buy the complete ADY head gasket set? I also need valve stem seals. Will it come with the set or should I buy seperately?

ALso where is the best place to buy? I've been told Alert and Masterparts. both places quoted R1600 for the ADY head gasket set.

Thanks

Goldwqgen, elring, ask them for the one that has the steel 2l gasket and they'll give you the right thing.
