= ; Karl, and all the rest of you who are looking into this.  My
experience has shown that the stuff in the head gasket kits is K-R-A-P !=  Use
Permatex or GE copper for head gasket applications.  I have been us= ing the
Permatex and never had a gasket leak afterwards.  Do it once, do it= right,
stop these head gasket leaks !
