24v Cylinder Head Gasket Kit - Where to buy
Ok Well my 24v project is undrway again - next step is to buy a complete Cylinder head gasket kit and engine gasket kit - which apparently includes the oil valve stem seals as well.
Part numbers are 71713723 Cyl and 71713724 eng.
Can anyone advise where would be the cheapest place to source these kits from, Alfa australia thinks they are made of gold or something and prices them accordingly.

French cars are shit and shit expensive to service and bloody awful and unreliable and expensive and friends don't let friends drive french cars and you wait years for parts.
Ah yes, now I understand.
He says he has aftermarket complete engine kits available for 150 pounds but no original alfa kits in stock. Is original better than aftermarket ?
What would you do Barry ?
Go original or aftermarket ?

Id get 2x REINZ headgaskets ..All the others can either be reused(cam cover rubber seals and plug seals)or gray Loctite siliconed..(water pump and thermo housings,etc..)
If the rubber plug seals are hard,get those as well..
Btw,REINZ is OE here..
If your using 164 type cam covers,chances are the old 4 piece gaskets are shot as well..Get those as well then.Your 166 based?Its got the newer ,better runbber sealss..

engine gasket kit 181 pounds
head gasket set 166 pounds !

I got my full engine set for just under $400 and they were in stock - so I am very happy.
Thanks for the help guys.
