I'm using them, and they work. Anything in particular you want to know?

Just wanting to know if they are worth the $$. I'm tired of replacing my Felpros.

When I first took the Percys out of the package I started laughing. I suddenly understood how they could claim to be leak proof. Each gasket is actually 4 thinner gaskets pressed together, making one thick, soft gasket. Well worth it.

Years ago I used to ride 2 stroke dirt bikes. My Yamaha mechanic told me I could use the copper head gaskets over and over. He said after a few times of R&Ring it you could just heat it up with a propane torch, let it cool down and still go on using it.
