are NAPA headgasket stong enough for boost??im running 6-9psi....i looked at NAPAs gasket and looks pretty good 3layers of metal...cause i dont want to pay $200 at the dealer

do all LS motor use the same gasket??

 

i thought oem was 80?
EDIT: I was wrnog....acuraparts.net
HEAD GASKET, Integra - GS-R, TYPE R 94-01 $58.82
HEAD GASKET, Integra - RS, LS, GS 96-01 $58.82

 

i got my b20 headgasket sraight from the deal for $51

your being had by whoever your going to (maybe he meant a gasket set???)

 

Just use your stock one and you should be fine

 

If you blow out a 3-layer, either your boosting a LOT or something else is wrong, ie warped head, weak head bolts.

 

all ls headgaskets are the same but i think the oil passage diameters may be slighly different from the newer to the older...either way it doesnt matter which one u use theyll both work with zero problems

 

hey i was just thinking its around 150-200 for the whole top end gasket kit right? maybe thats what the price was for? i know i went to buy the valve cover gasket at autozone and the thing costs more than from the dealer normal price. i only use the 25% on big stuff cuz it takes a day to get normally. i normally need that **** that day. of course im gonna use it when i get the oem top and bottem end gasket kit with bearings and itr vc cuz ill prolly save a bill.
