Have any of you guys tried this and what were your results?

 

doesn't Cometic make o.063" thick head gaskets

I would rather trust a head gasket designed to be that thick over two regular ead gaskets stacked.

not to mention that it would probably be cheaper to purchase the Cometic that it would be for two OEM headgaskets or aftermarket

 

Yep, I'm opposed to stacking 2... especially with boost.

Just asking before I try contacting cometic again this afternoon. It's always good to have all the area's covered in advance. Thanks daniel.

 

anytime anthony....I am just trying to prevent you from spending money that could potentially be a waste

 

It's not my car, hehe.

 

who's is it? Got someone else to cross over to the turbo world?

I was thinking of going turbo until I came across a JDM ITR swap for cheap....now I sell them, it is great

 

it's mine and id rather pay 1000 for a gasket that will work rather than stack 2 and have it **** up

 

haha I hear that

gosh golly, Anthony and his corner cutting j/k

 

but i would also rather save a 1000 tooo

 

the head gasket isn't gona be $1000

more like $160-190 at most

 

yea i know that....i wasnt speaking literally

 

oh ok just wanted to make shure you knew that

Toda also offers thicker-than-stock gaskets to lower compression, but if the build is extreme, you'd obviously be better off lowering the compression via pistons.

 

to make a long story short i hydro locked, warped the head which was already shaved and i allready have je 10:1's and my car has been down for almost 2 months so i just want to get it back on the road unless you know someone that wants to buy them

they make em even thicker than taht but get some came gears toget your timing back to normal.

 

It works, alot of cars up here do it sucessfully, i had it on an old setup. Just drill out the rivits and re rivit the 2 headgaskets together. Make sure to use copper spray and tq the headstuds an extra 5lbs.

Remember Precisionh23 is my Hero!!!

 

cometic doesnt make anyhting for the h23

 

Well I remember the only difference in the H22 and H23 head gaskets was the fact that one of them had two open passages that the other one didn't have. It seems to me like it was the H22 that had the two closed passages...........

If you can get ahold of one of each, you'll see what I'm talking about. You may be able to just drill out the holes in an aftermarket headgasket to make it work.

Just a thought...

 

i was thinking about doing that

 

anyone else done this?
