BrumLee:
You can find them on ebay if you want to go that route  :wink: LOOK HERE or if you need all gaskets and head bolts HERE

Elise parts do all sorts of nice k series bits www.eliseparts.com you dont pay a premiumfor the "lotus" side as they are just good up rated aftermarket bits.  I would also consider movingthe thermostat as thats the real cause of the HGF (later freelander had this moved) and you neeed a specific freelander kit as all k series instalations (rovers, elises, mg's, freelanders) have different plumbing.

And you definitley neednewbolts.

alankennedy10:
thanks reply guys

ye know that new bolts must be used

it was more the gasket that was being a [!Expletive Deleted!] to get hold off not in stock (due to high demand as everyone wants it to sort theres).

am a bit dubious to buy gasket of fleasmebay

can you confirm that the gasket on the elise pages is identical please (follow link)

That is the older style gasket with the orange elastomer sealing on it ..... had that replaced on mine after 45k miles !  There is now a two part head gasket and a new bottom rail as well as new head bolts ........ just had that one fitted after 115k !
