Default Cometic MLX head gaskets

Cometic supposedly has a new line of head gaskets. The MLX line. I E-mailed them about these but no response so far.
Anybody familiar with them?

If you call them they will probably be able to make you a set...

Nothing new about being the red headed stepchild... Edelbrock was offering aluminum heads for AMC's before us!

Pontiac E's came out in '95 right? AMC was before then?

I sent them an E-mail basically ordering a set for my setup. Pontiac (traditional), .051" thick with the 421 water holes.

They never even responded that they received it.

I will call them next week and see whats what.

Pretty sure I saw them in Summit and Jegs catalogs before us... AMC started getting stuff after becoming part of Mopar especially early 90's when Mopar was doing well in Pro Stock. Not certain but they may have got the torker intake before us back in the early 70's too. They cant possibly outnumber us can they?



Has Cometic undergone a management or ownership change recently? Never used to hear of any issues with them, product or customer service. Lately I've heard of water holes or dowel holes not quite where they should be and hard to get ahold of.

Called Cometic directly.
There will be no MLX head gaskets for traditional Pontiac.
Period.
