Are you reffering to the headder gasket or the head gasket(the gasket sandwitched between the engine head and block).

A head gasket replacement is what it sounds like, take a look my link for my cardomain page I have some pics of when I replaced the IPB Imagehead gasket for the 7afe.

I blew the gasket on my old 7AFE when I was dragging at SAC. raceway last year. I was running 16s ! before if blew.


Replacing the head gasket is not that difficult its just quite time consumming. Get yourself a chilton repair manual and it has all the procedures.
