    Especially if you're on a tight budget.

    Yea, the Cometics are expensive. I think I paid $75 a piece for them. It's what my engine builder recomended though so that's what I bought.

    Buy the cheapest weakest ones you can find. I run the $9 ones at auto zone. This way if something happens you just lose a gasket. Not a block or piston. Try it you'll thank me later
