Does anyone know the stock bore size for these two engines.
I just bought a comtec headgasket that is 75.5mm and the place that I bought this from swears that it is for the stock bore of these two engines...
any info is appreciated.

as far as i know all d-series engines have the same bore even the 1.5l's the only diff is the stroke

 

i belive its 75 mm

 

it.s 75mm, 75.5 is .020 over for pistons. you either have to have your block machined, get piston and rings, or ditch the gasket.

It is weird that you can't get a Cometic Headgasket in 75mm... Go to the site. I says that the proper HG is 75.5mm.

What a sham.

Running that gasket on your "stock bore" block should not cause any problems. Call them and ask them.
