Default Spare Head Gasket?

Anyone upgrade to the widefire head gasket and have an unused regular gasket lying around that they might want to part with cheap? I bought a motor and originally was only going to redo the rod bearings and reseal the lower end but since then I've basically redone the entire motor and found that the cam tower leaks so I have to pull that so I might as well do a head gasket as well and just be done with it. I probably would have been better off just buying an engine overhaul kit but I've foolishly just gone in circles buying it piece by piece.

I have one that came with my head kit+ a Widefire. Make an offer on the standard 994 head gasket.

I said standard but it is a brand new turbo head gasket. I don't need the widefire since I am building it N/A but am goign to use the WF just in case I get crazy and do something stupid after the new motor gets broke in.

I used a WF head gasket, even though I'm not presently doing anything crazy, it's a 'just-incase' for later. Good call.

The turbo gasket will work just peachy in a N/A, just incase you don't already know.

Cool... Oh and when I said make an offer. I am not looking to get my money back.. Just enough to be worth putting it in a box. +shipping. So like $10 plus shipping which should be no more than $5 tops for priority mail.
