rayaapp2 Posted March 3, 2004 Share Posted March 3, 2004 I need at least 15-20 people to investigate and buy a MLS head gasket from Cometic. Any less and they will not bother to make them. If you have questions about it check their site under materials. Or you can e-mail Chad @ chadehrke@cometic.com He is collecting names of buyers. A discount will be givin to us because we will be buying in a group. They have copper and composite alternatives for $60 +or- 5. Custom thickness are available. Ask chad for a estimate on the steel but it sounded like it would cost $80. I have investigated three other gasket makers Tomei SCE HKS All of which run for at least $200. I have a thread at Zcar.com http://www.zcar.com/forums/read.php?f=1&i=446191&t=446191 Please take a look at this. Thankyou Ray Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spork Posted March 4, 2004 Share Posted March 4, 2004 I've got an hks on my car...but I wanted to say that I've used the cometic steel gaskets on other cars and they're awsome. I checked availability of them for our cars awhle back and they didn't make one or want to make one at the time so I bought the hks.

slownrusty Posted March 4, 2004 Share Posted March 4, 2004 Sounds great Ray - I will email Chad at Cometic and get myself put on the list. Great price. Regards - Yasin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rayaapp2 Posted March 9, 2004 Author Share Posted March 9, 2004 Does anybody else want a gasket for their project motor? I am going to call and see how many have signed up and post the number. Thanks Ray Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kj280z Posted March 18, 2004 Share Posted March 18, 2004 I would consider buying 2 of them for our Project cars for the Magazine... They'd also get a lot of interest from readers once they're successfully installed and tested... They would need to support at least a 89mm cylinder bore. I'd need mine in a 1mm thickness...

Phyte Posted March 18, 2004 Share Posted March 18, 2004 I'm rebuilding my L28et in 2 months. It has a BHG I'd be interested in this if its still around? Phyte Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rayaapp2 Posted March 20, 2004 Author Share Posted March 20, 2004 Okay heres the deal I filled out their head gasket request form. I sent that in. I should be hearing from them shortly or I will call. Aprox. 16 people had signed up as of Tues. We need about 20-25 people to order gaskets. I get to send in a sample gasket. Then they will make the tool to create gaskets. The bore and thickness is customizable! That is you may order the size you want! I have talked to several people offline whom are interested in it. IMPORTANT: when e-mailing cometic your Subject should include "head gasket request" or The cometic site will assume it is spam and it will never reach Chad His e-mail is cehrke@cometic.com 440.354.0777 ex 114 new link to zcar thread http://www.zcar.com/forums/read.php?f=1&i=451843&t=451843 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thehelix112 Posted September 3, 2006 Share Posted September 3, 2006 You are around 2 years, 5 months and 13 days too late. Check the date on the post you replied to. Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T61 260Z Posted September 3, 2006 Share Posted September 3, 2006 Can cometic still make one?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thehelix112 Posted September 4, 2006 Share Posted September 4, 2006 If you had read the thread, and/or searched you would see that they never made them. What was being talked about was a custom order which I am not sure ever went through. I emailed them about it a few months ago and got a `not available' response.
