Felpro Upper Gasket Set?

[BigPapa]

A good friend with an '01 is needing a Head Gasket Set for his truck. He's asked me about using a Felpro set, #HS9522PT. Anyone have experience with it?

His other options are:

• Cummins 4090035 (my recommendation)
• Victor Reinz 02-10586-01
  
• Mahle HS54174-2

I changed my head gasket on my '01 on 7-29-15 @258k with a Napa/Felpro. It now has 370k. I always figured Felpro was OEM but not sure.

PS:

I also reused my head bolts, torqued to 120lbs.

There is a lot of evidence that Felpro makes the Cummins seals and gaskets. I've put both head gaskets and both rear main seals side by side. I can't see one difference.

Use them all the time never had a problem. That’s what my overhaul kit came with when I rebuilt the engine in my 98
