I have just fitted a head gasket that i got from them (not for a scooby though) , it looks quite good quality , but haven't given it a good test yet, is there much of a price diffrence between them and a genuine subaru gasket?

G,
I was thinking of using them too for the classic. They have pretty good feedback, It seems like its ok.

I bought a none subaru set once. It was sh!te and I didn't even use it. Took it back, got a refund and bought the subaru set at twice the price but it was far far better quality.

I wouldn't chance it Gary.

They aren't for my car, will be going in a car running standard power.

Will be using proper head gaskets regardless, not worth taking a chance with them

bought a cheap set from eBay for the 2.5 conversion (with proper cometic head gaskets)

ended up delaying the engine swap as all the ebay ones leaked like hell and had to be replaced with proper subaru ones

waste of time + cash .....
