Hey guys, i was wondering if all headgaskets are the same? in bore size i mean, im looking into buying a metal head gasket and want to know if i need to specify that my block is bored 20 over (.020). I think im gonna buy an ACL one (the people that make bearings ;p) so can someone be so kind as to telling me what I have to torque the head bolts to? also should 1mm thick be fine or should i get a thicker one?

QUOTE(WALKER @ Oct 4, 2007 - 5:20 PM) [snapback]601703[/snapback] Out of curiousity what are the differences between 5S-FE and 3S-GTE headgaskets. Can they be interchanged (i.e. can you use a 3S-GTE head gasket on a 5S-FE without modification?)? Anyone have pictures comparing the heads, blocks, gaskets of the two engines? ^ no they are not interchangable. 3sgte = 2.0l 5sfe = 2.2l cylinder diameter is different, so there for the HG has a different hole diameter. --------------------  Kawi Love |

Well the 3S head can go on the 5S block. The cylinder bore is 86mm (3S-GTE) vs 87.1mm (5S-FE), therefore if the gasket bore is 88mm, I would think it would work on both. Just curious, that is why I would like to see a picture of a 3S head or gasket and a picture of a 5S head or gasket. -------------------- |
