    Hi Warren,

    thank you for letting me know,

    just a question , I looked on ebay before I listed the question,

    and they are on UK ebay for the sets  at $29.00 or $36.00 by two different suppliers

    including postage,

    what makes yours cost $100.00  apart from 12 days wait

    You might be comparing the price of a head gasket on eBay with a full head set (i.e. Part HS8361PT) comprising gaskets for the head, inlet and exhaust manifolds, valve stem seals, camshaft seal etc.

    The cheapest I found one on ebay was $33 + $22 freight, but you're right and I'll be asking my supplier the same question.  I guess the supply time is a factor, but also the risk of damage if you ordered a single unit from Overseas, and someone to come back to if something goes wrong.
     
    I'll bring them with me anyway, and discuss a price with you then if I can help out. 
     
    Cheers

    Actually, the ones I found for $33 ARE NOT Felpro.  The going rate for a Felpro on the US and UK ebay sites is about $45+ 25ish post. 
     
    I would be happy with $85 for one, and I'll bring them with me on Sunday,
     
    Cheers
