LS/VTEC Head Gaskets. B18/B20 same or diff.?
Are the B18(non-vtec) and the B20(non-vtec) gaskets the same as far as oil and coolant passages? I know the bores are different sizes.
Question is...If using an LS/VTEC with a B18 bottom end and GSR head, do I have to use a B18 Head gasket? Or can I use the B20?
Since it looks like the cometic gaskets are just B16(vtec) gaskets. (At least the last 3 or 4 that I've gotten pretty much are exact to a b16vtec gasket.)
I need an 85mm and it just seemed more logical to get the B20 gasket and not have to remove as much material as having to on the B18 to acheive the 85mm.
Thanks.
