Re: b18 gaskets and beaings

I ordered something like this and just replaced the head gasket with an OEM honda one, and it has been working for me with no leaks. It's cheap too

OEM headgaskets are best. ACL race or oem bearings are best. Just make sure your gaps are correct. Ive run ACL race on all my builds. No issues.

If you use that headgasket you will have to rebuild it. That will not hold boost. Save time and money by doing it right the first time
