BGA gaskets/seals

[Grandpa Joe]

Any experience with BGA?

I've used FAI, Payen etc. before but never BGA. I'm guessing they're just as good?

There very bad for valver/Williams anyway....

Personally I'd just buy Renault gaskets !

Who makes the gaskets for Renault?

 

[not normal dan]

s**t..... Stick to payen, from past experience in the trade bga are cheap and nasty kits in my opinion.

Gotse I think it's spelled?
For Williams clio's anyway....

They change the brands every couple of years though.
​
one lad on clio16valver used bga valve seals.
They were pumping out oil after a year and a half!!


Another fella had his bga HG go after 2 weeks.

BGA stuff is crap for anything more than the odd manifold gasket (hard to get wrong really) FAI stuff is also cheap and nasty although better than it used to be.

I use Victor-Reinz or genuine.

 

[Fred@BTM]

Yeah Vicotr-Reinz is the best, some BGA stuff is ok, not much though!

Reinz or Elring, but Elring is more expensive in some parts
