Default Head Gasket quesiton for Turbo?
I have a Darton Sleeved B16 block. Bored out to 82.5mm. I have my pistons and everything to assemble, BUT a head gasket. i know golden eagle makes them, but its only 81,82,83mm etc. not 82.5m. People were telling me i would be fine with an 83mm. Is this TRUE?
