Would have thought the after market chains, Cafco, Partco, Allparts would have been able to come up trumps on something like this?

Hi Nick,

Second what rustybin says. Alternatively could be worth a look in Autotrader or Exchange & Mart for ads for companies that specialise in supplying bits for Japanese cars (as it's really a Honda engine of course). Reckon they should be cheaper than main dealer.

Wow Nick that was a bit steep !
Did you try Honda ( 2.7 legend, part no. 12251-PL2-003 looks like front and back are both the same ) pair for my 3.2 were £ 80 from main dealer.

Hiya Ken
Didn't actually need the head gaskets themselves just everything else, couldn't be bothered to get each one individually at the dealer so went for a "Headset"

Wish I hadn't now.
