Ok heres a little backround, i know z6 stock headgaskets are 3 layer. Out of the blue a motor that my buddie blew had this 4 layer gasket. Let me explain, stock one has th upper lower and chrome one in middle. This one has one upper, 2 lower and a THICK middle chrome one. Now my buddie has no idea of the backround of this motor so im thinking, is this a cometic gasket??? its about 2 times as thick as the stock z6 one. the middle chrome layer is about as thick as the stock z6 headgasket alone. but then again can this be a Y8 gasket or a d15 one? i dont think so cuz its suppper think. Anyways here are the pics, i tried taking pictures of the 4 layers seperated but they turned out like dirt so i just took these:

stock full shape


my full shape (notice its diff in design)


stock numbers "P0827082"


my numbers "P010Y011" and has a 1 in corner


what you guys think?? Thanks for playing! ....
