Where can i get a Headgasket?

[chief]

Ok folks, any recommendations for where i can order a headgasket for my 328i that will hold up having a supercharger and NOS pushing the limits?

I have searched Pelican Parts, and Bav Auto but they donot show any headgaskets for performance enhanced motors.

Appreciate any recommendations [except getting rid of the supercharger].

Get rid of the supercharger. I would, but if a stock gasket will not hold up I would assume the supercharger manufacturer would either have a gasket or a preference for a gasket.

And hey Bill, I am considering a move to the Dallas/Ft. Worth area in 2009, where do you recommend, neighborhoods to avoid, or what is a good area to look in if I want acreage?

How much acreage are you looking for?
About 5 miles north of me there is acreage and housing developement where the homes are going up for $250,000 to $600,000 on 5 acres of land.
If you look at a map of the area this property is North of Eagle Mountain Lake on the Northwest side of Fort Worth.

I will check the map out, thanks!

No problem. If you want Dallas the taxes in Keller etc. are very high. So is the property.
Reason for suggesting Bond Ranch, is that it is outside Fort Worth taxes. Plus, although i haven't driven out there, i suspect some engineers laid off by Lockheed had bought there. They will be looking to get out of their mortgages within the next year.
