hey guys, I figure I'd post my question here because the motor is from a DA integra.
All I'm wondering is the stock head gasket on a b18a, is it metal or is it the 3-layer paper???

I've searched and couldn't find anything about it

thanks

 

Metal. I just bought one today.

It is a three layer metal gasket.

 

Paper....wtf.


Its three layer Metal

 

metal man. You thinnk under all that pressure paper would hold up? not a chance

 

guys you need to make sure you read the post before posting. The man said "I HAVE NEVER HEARD OF A PAPER HEAD GASKET" making fun of those who said metal... is there anything but metal head gaskets??? come on guys give some consideration to your posts. But to answer your question the stock head gasket is a metal 3-layer gasket. You can use a fel-pro if you want to save some cash but if you are boosting you will want either a factory or a thicker head gasket.
