Hi, I'm planning to do major maintenance,
doing also a couple of heads in my 1300vl
(it has a valve not perfect, sometime running
roughly at low rev.) or may be in a spare
1500vl motor I have.

Also if I'm in Italy, I'm not sure if I'll find head gaskets
and all the other gaskets at alfa-fiat spare shop in my city,
Fiat is quite pragmatic and really don't like sell "old" stuff,
so incredibly many spares for 33 but also 145 and 155
are already been officially dismissed and are difficult to have.

Can I trust this "o.e.m" spares?
(I put link for 1300 version but whey have also the 1500 version)

Goetze (I already heard this name, it is good?) head gasket:

No problem with these, a good make. Also I've used gasket shop and they were fine.
