I agree.. I prefer the metal bit versus the older fiber-type.. Are you replacing your headbolts, as well? Ricky

Haven't had a chance to replace my head but the gasket set looks very complete w/rubber valve cover gasket, etc. They are at: http://techtonicstuning.com/ As an aside, many are not using the original fiber type head gasket for the 16v anymore, they are recommending the multi layer metal head gasket from the newer VW 2.0L engine.
