Just wondering to those of you who have rebuilt your head what brand gaskets you purchased? I'm looking to get a whole top end kit, was considering this:

http://performance.importrp.com/cometic/co...it/g-62543.aspx
or
http://catalog.importrp.com/item.wws?sku=2...mp;weight=1.250

The first link listed says its for 88mm bore but i thought the 5s-fe was an 87mm? Or is it just stating it can be used with a max 88mm bore? My car will be a daily driver, no crazy power. I just want something that will last. Let me know what you guys think.

get a 98 or 99 celica head gasket kit, it will come with all the gaskets you need, including a new METAL gasket. the OEM gasket is the best one on the market. part number for the kit is 04112-74581
