    Gasket recomendations

    I was just curious as to the opinions of you guys the best/worse gaskets. I'm gonna have to buy a top end set so any particular brand you like or dislike ect. I would sure like to know who and why.
    Thanks, Devin

    OEM are best, the only Aftermarkt brand i have found to come close to OEM standards was Cometic, and i havent had any problems with them.

    if your getting factory honda gaskets make sure you get a ATC head gasket the TRX ones were thicker.

    use a OEM CR head gasket I think the ATC gaskets are discontinued and they will give you a thick TRX head gasket.
