Reichard Motorsport sell these for years now. Even more expensive there. I was planing to fit one of these on my last rebuilt but few peeps over here that know the knowledge said it is not good combo with engine with liners.

No point in trying a mls when the o.e gasket is more than up to the job;)

Probably talking poopie, but would it not make it easier for someting else to let go if the head gasket is too strong? Say a liner for example?

You are not talking poopie my man. You hit the nail on the head. There is a reason why a HG is a weak spot. If you're popping headgaskets, you need to be looking at other things than an uprated HG.

You see these used a lot on big power y.b's and can be quite handy if you pissing around with the engine all the time.
