Default V8-60 Gasket source

Hi all,

Can anyone recommend a good source for a V8-60 Gasket kit? I was able to find a full kit (with head gaskets) from Marx parts for about $160, but wanted to see if there were any other options before I place the order.

I've also never ordered from Marx before, so if anyone has any experience with them please let me know if they're a good vendor.

Thanks for any input.

Nick

Mac 's has full sets with FelPro head gaskets for $130 and head gaskets for $104 per pair. www.macsautoparts.com

Joblot has full sets for $159, timing cover for $6.95 and some others. They use Ford parts numbers and I called and asked about a number they didn't list but they had it. They have water pump kits too. www.joblotauto.com

Go to bestgasket.com, click on Products Search, click on Ford Mercury under engine gaskets, click on V8 flathead and finally, 1937-40 V8 60 for lists of all 17 stud gaskets.
