The toyota vs felpro gasket debate is stupid. I use felpro all the time, they work fine. Ive used over 10, and none have blown that I know of yet. Only time ive ever had a hg fail was a rock gasket matter of fact, but it was also the only time we didnt surface the head, and it had kinda corroded jackets so that could have been it.

There are 2 dif fel pros I know of for 22r. One is the kind that seals and kinda sticks to the block and head, its silverish flaky material,the other is almost an exact copy of the toyota one. Both work fine.
