aussiecowboy Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 Anyone know a supplier where I might get a set of head gaskets (split head) for my 29 Pontiac? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nzcarnerd Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 There must be a gasket maker in one of the big cities in Oz who can make you gaskets. We have one here in Christchurch NZ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rusty_OToole Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 (edited) Al Lambert at Gasket City can help you if anyone can. He stocks gaskets for cars back to 1907.GasketCity.comHe is on Saveryn Road in Hamilton Ontario Canada.

aussiecowboy Posted May 19, 2012 Author Share Posted May 19, 2012 Thanks for the tip, I have emailed Al. There might be a gasket maker around but I live out in the bush and don't want to have to take the gasket to anyone to have copied. Once I have the heads off I want them back on the same day. This car is more or less my daily driver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aussiecowboy Posted May 21, 2012 Author Share Posted May 21, 2012 I have used Hagens a lot in the past but they are expensive. I ended up going through gasketcity, less than half the price of Hagens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rusty_OToole Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 Glad to be of help. It would be interesting to know how long it takes to get delivery from Hamilton Ontario to Echuca Australia. If you could let us know when it arrives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aussiecowboy Posted May 23, 2012 Author Share Posted May 23, 2012 He is shipping from Niagra Falls apparently so shouldn't take too long. I know from past experience postage from Canada to Aus is horribly expensive and slow. I bought a window regulator from Canada, cost $90 to ship and took 6 weeks.
