Default Does anybody Know if they make good head and base gaskets for 400's

I only use the best felpro gaskets in my mustang since I don't like the cheap stock paper junk. I'd like to find a high quality head and cylinder base gasket since I have to take them apart. I want the best of the best when it comes to gaskets. If your following my other threads you'll know why it's apart. 2000 scrambler 400 I know it's in my sig but some people still ask "what bike are you riding"

Ditto on Rick. My dealer sold me a aftermarket head gasket to try out and it didn't last 4 trips to the dunes. I've been running the stock oem head gasket now for 6 months or so. OEM all the way. They are more expensive though.

LOL. No I don't mind at all. That's what a lot of people say around here too. It's funny to see their faces when we head out on a ride and I'm wheelieing past them and throwing sand all over them. When we stop for a break and they say "man you threw sand all over me" I just say "not bad for a chick bike huh".[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

It's just too much for some people to believe. Some people don't believe me when I say it's just a 400.

Man you gotta love that. You should get a sticker that say's "chick bike" on it to put on the back of your quad since that's all anybody ever sees
