Well since I waisted the gear on the oil pump I am going to have to tear the engine down and clean it. I already used my spare gasket last year. So what do I do? Is there any way to get a hold of the people and or company we bought through on the last group buy? It was the special 100 thousandth bigger gasket. With race season coming on I am in a pinch, and would like to get them as soon as possible. If I can afford it I would like to get half a dozen.

I'd bug Cometic about MLS gaskets for the slant and Dan posted this stating something about MLS slant head gaskets being produced "down under".

The Permaseal gaskets are available from Blue Star Spares and form Pentastar Parts and Restorations in Oz. I believe the exchange rate is pretty favorable right now too.

Growing older is unavoidable but growing up is strictly optional.
