Fel-Pro Hs26170Pt1 Head Gasket Set Review

These gaskets worked great on my 2001 Subaru Legacy GT. The head gaskets have 3 layers of stainless steel and was of better quality than the OEM head gasket I removed. Surprisingly they were made in Japan. This does not contain head bolts, I reused my existing ones (which is fine on these Subaru's, so long as the bolts aren't damaged). The tightening sequence is:
Step 1.....22 ft/lbs
Step 2.....51 ft/lbs
Step 3.....loosen all 180 in reverse order of tightening
Step 4.....loosen all an additional 180
Step 5..... bolts 1 and 2 only 25 ft/lbs
Step 6.....bolts 3,4,5,6 132 in/lbs
Step 7.....tighten all bolts 80 to 90 degrees
Step 8.....tighten all bolts 80 to 90 degrees

the order is of the bolts is:
TOP
316
524
BOTTOM

I used a Haynes manual and the web to guide my repair. I'm not sure if I can post a link to the site I used, but google search: "2000 my obw in car head gasket replacement". I got some great tips from there. Timing is easy (on the SOHC engine), just line up the 3 notches (not the arrows). The notches are not at top dead center, they are at middle center. This confused me at first but that's the way it is. I was able to do it with out removing the engine, but it was hard to get the heads in position with out messing up the new gasket. I used rubber bands to hold the bolts and had someone put the gasket in after I lined it up. I had to hit the drivers side fender with a hammer to put a small dent to allow for the #4 bolt to have enough clearance. You can't see the dent with everything back in the engine. Good luck!
