Head gasket recommendation

Post by Mikkels » Sun Jul 29, 2012 9:30 pm

The head is coming off to solve an overheating problem. May go FI in the future. Where can I source a head gasket that is up to the task. Motor is 97 BP 1800.

Try Broomfish Motorsport. They have a good selection of gaskets depending on how much you want to spend.

even for boost you dont need a super flash expensive gasket. theres plenty of guys running boost on untouched 160,000km engines no problem...

boost doesnt kill head gaskets....crap tuning does.
