im going to be taking my head off sometime this week because i believe i have a blown headgasket. now, my problem comes when selecting a new gasket. i have a b18b that has been bored to 2.0L, what type of gasket should i get?? should i get an OEM B20 gasket??? (i know it sounds stupid, im just guessing) or should i get a oem ls gasket and cut it out??? also should i get an aftermarket gasket or just stick to oem parts???? thanx

 

If you've got a 84mm bore, you can use the B20B/Z head gasket.

Otherwise, look into getting a different size from Cometic.

 

Yes used the b20 head gasket because it would be the easiest.You can also get a stock LS hg and bore it out to 84mm.

 

thanx guys...which one should i go w/ though, any preferences???? should i just get an oem B20 or bore out an oem b18b or should i get an aftermarket gasket???
