For the Fel-Pro set Rock Auto wants the same as Zone but another $40 to have it here tomorrow I haven't done this in over 35 years and I don't know what to look for anymore. Is there a quality difference? Could they be different types of gaskets?
It's important to me that I get these quickly but I don't want to sacrifice quality. thanks jerry | | |

Foreign made.
American made.
American made from foreign materials.
54 3100 with 235
62 flatbed dump C60 with 261
