Another source for the new multifuel head gaskets

[firedog104]

Merged threads as there is no need to start a new one when this has just been discussed.

Call the big vendors or the guy in post #30

Called a few days ago, left a message. Haven't heard back. Will try M35 Tom or TNJ next.

M35 Tom doesn't sell them anymore.

I understand that the "new updated" head gaskets are the best thing since sliced bread, but the old style has held up pretty good if you look at it's track record. I have both styles and I'm not sure which I will use when I do my head swap. I have heard from guys that work their trucks that its not as cut and dry as everyone thinks.

I called the manufacturer and they said they sold the last lot to "TNJ Murray" . I called them up and they want $80.00 each. So that's $160.00 to do your heads.

I bought a set from TnJ before the price went up; it is advertised as the "new version" but it isn't the same as the clevite 5818 version I purchased from other vendors (including m35 tom). The TnJ gaskets have a slick, graphite gasket surface while the mahle clevite is more fibrous. Reminds me of the exhaust manifold gaskets for the old 302 gmc. Can't speculate on which is better.

Any updates on this topic? I'm needing to do a head gasket set on mine.

Thanks,

Check with SECO in Augusta, GA. I got four of them via local pickup (I live less than 80 miles away) from them last fall. Less than $240 with sales tax. Shipping would be extra.

A Marine veteran of Vietnam just called me from Arizona and wants a Head Gasket set for his multifuel deuce. He wants the whole Head set, not just 2 Head Gaskets. He's a really good guy and I would like to help him, if anyone knows who sells them and hopefully with phone number cause my friend doesn't do computer stuff. John Tennis
