Default Headgaskets?

Whats the difference between the b18a/b head gasket and the b18c1? ie whats the difference between the vtec one and the non vtec one?

The location of the dowel pins is different and the VTEC gasket has a port for the oil flow to the head for the VTEC system.

Did you try getting it replaced/refunded?

Closer to 40-50 for an oem one then 100 though.
