head gaskets

finally got my pistons today so can start my engine in the new year but have a question on head gaskets i've been told you can use the vitara ones and there just as good as the ones cooper ones if not better certainly cheaper anybody had experience with either

i use the genuine vitara gasket with my 75.5 pistons
you will need the part number tho, £50
or if you know someone with the right vitara, you can use the vin number

is that gen suzuki part?

just answered my own question i opened my eyes and read the sticker lol

Just tried to order one of these head gaskets 11141-61J00, the part number is not recognized & may be out of date. Anybody got an alternative part number?

Update, the head gasket is from the APV or high spec super carry, neither of these were ever sold in the UK. My local Suzuki dealership has now found the right part & its Japanese market only. He is ordering me one in at about £80.00 plus shipping costs.
