I personally prefer the Fel-Pro gaskets. There's a good chance the dealer gaskets are repackaged Fel-Pro's anyway.

These are the real deal as well for 199. The seller has better feed back and they are here in MI... Northville in fact.

I was told to go w/ Accel, 8 for $350 because they are the "best"... Same person who sold me plugs for the natural gas 5.4. They are working fine but wish I would have gone w/ Motorcraft. Everyone on the forum says these trucks are finicky for Motorcraft parts.

they are. Accel coils tend to cause missfires.

Forget about the names just look and compare the quality. I'm referring to the Motorcraft coils & COP that came from the factory not the Low Quality Replacement.

Fel Pro is the Best.

The only thing that came from the factory unreliable are the Gaskets including the Cyclinder Head. I replace all HeadGaskets on my vehicles with Fel Pro. I never have a single leak problem until now.
