OEM Honda headgasket is good from 81-82mm. Golden Eagle MFG offers an "82mm", but I can guarantee you it is untouched.

This too, I have heard that an OEM 81mm headgasket will work on a 82mm bore

On the factory ones the dowel pins holes are different.... golden eagle sells a custom dowel pin set for the vtec gasket on an ls block.
