Are these gasket sets any good?
bottom end set
top end set
and do they include all the gaskets and seals i'll need for a full rebuild?

get the proper elring gasket sets, there very poor quality and looking at the pic, the sump gaskets dont have the small metal plates in, and you'll only over tighten the sump and split the gasket

I got e-bay special stuff when I re-did the top end on mine. It's been fine since.

I got valves, valve guides, valve stem seals, manifold gaskets and head gasket - everything to build the head up from it being bare pretty much. It's been together since January with the car being used every day and it's been totally fine, it's not a case of cheap = crap in this case anyway.

luck then, id never buy anything like that off ebay. valves id only go for old good oem valves checked and re faced, oem from vaux or 1peice REC valves.
try king components for gaskets, rings, bearings etc etc easier to do search on google for them

I'm not saying anyone's wrong to get dearer stuff. Just that I've yet to have a problem with mine since I used the e-bay stuff.
