No that headgasket will not work. You need a new head gasket for the new bore size.

 

hey man, yeah you are going to need to get a .05 over headgasket also. I didnt think to tell you that when you picked it up, sorry.

i dont think you need a bigger headgasket. on a B series gasket, they give you about .6mm worth of extra all around so that you can use the same gasket for their overbore (which is only .25mm) But i've used a stock bore HG on many 81.5 builds with no issues. You should be able to do the same, just measure the gasket.

 

the motor is 1.3mm over bore

 

how in the world can it be?

 

unless i am just completely retarded... .05in is about 1.3mm...

 

the motor isnt bored .050" if anything its bored .020" or .5mm

 

im confused...

the motor IS .05 over.... i sold it to 757neon
