I am in the process of replacing the head gasket on my 95 suburban. THe local parts store has FEL PRO gaskets, and headbolts. It seems like most people like the FEL PRO gaskets, but are head bolts of the same quality? Do they come pre-coated? It seems that people prefer the ARP head bolts, but they are much more expensive. Will I be ok with the FELPRO gasket and bolts? My truck is not used for pulling, but only towing the kids around town.

thanks
Jason

I just installed head gaskets and new head bolts. Replacing Victor and unknown. The Felpro gaskets look fine and the Felpro bolt set WAS precoated under the heads and on the first inch of the threads - good stuff!

I think if you were to go to GM for head gaskets you'd hget a plain brown wrapper with GM logo, but look at the gasket and it will likely say Fel Pro.
