Head Gasket

I am in the process of taking out my cylinder head and will be replacing my head gasket. At the mean time I need to know if cometic or cosworth is better?

Felpro or OE composite will be the way to go, if you are under 600 hp

Many 4g builds rune the composite HG with ARP and are in the mid 500hp level around 30 psi of boost

The OE MLS gasket is fine. It is not a weak link.
