72 12a felpro gasket??

Hi everyone!

Does anyone knows if felpro's gaskets are good? Especially their rubbers like O-Rings.

I found this kit:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/MAZDA-12 ... 542wt_1167

Can i trust in this gakets??
Are any particular part from felpro's gaskets that i can not trust but can trust in others parts??

Thanks!!

Dont' risk it, buy the OEM seals. The last thing you want to do is open an engine back up because of some cheap seals that you saved 10 bucks on.
