Bought a 2004 Civic LX with an (apparently) Frankensteined engine/head combo on Craigslist recently. Was overheating and loosing coolant so we pulled head to replace gasket and it looks like the engine and the head were not born together in the factory. The head gasket does not seem to properly fit either head or engine. I want to buy a remanufactured head and put this back together.

Question: Will this head work with this engine block -- should I just order same head from remanufacturer?
Question: Which head gasket should I use?

Thanks in advance for any help!!
