quick headgasket question, ls/vtec
I just picked up my headgasket from the honda dealership, and I want to make sure I got the right one before I take my car apart cause I dont have time to be waiting for the right one...
Here is the honda part #-- 12251-P8R-004, its for a 98-01 CRV (B20B). My friend works there and I gave him the part # for the 01 LS, which is the block I have and they gave me this one which has a different part #. I heard all B-series non-vtec HG's were the same but I want to be 100% sure. Thanks, and I did search but couldnt find exactly what I was looking for.

You use the HG for the block when you have an LS/vtec.

Re: quick headgasket question, ls/vtec (TurboCoop)
An OEM LS head gasket should be used. The alternative is to use a Golden Eagle LSVTEC head gasket.

You need to get the correct one or you'll have nothing but problems!</TD></TR></TABLE> Ok thanks, I havent been paying attention my thread cause most people want to be dicks instead of helping, but I figured it out a while ago. I already got my cometic cause the OEM LS gasket was $90 and I got mine for $85 shipped. The people at my local honda dealership are morons, they need to have H-T in front of them instead of thier bullshit honda database...
