OT - Corteco Gaskets

["piper_pa20" <piper_pa20@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm going to need a head gasket for my son's 1995 Chevy S10 with the 2.2L 
engine.  This is the second time since he has owned it that it has lost 
compression in at least one cylinder. Last time it was a blown head gasket 
and I'm suspecting the same now.

Question:  Do any of the large auto parts chain stores sell Corteco gaskets? 
They supposedly have a new graphite sandwich gasket which is supposed to 
correct the woes of this engine.  The engine BTW has a poor reputation.

Just want to get the truck running and sell it.  Great little truck other 
than this problem 130,000 miles, extended cab. T5 tranny.
