What's a head gasket?

cwick187

Why do you need a new head gasket??? That's freakin expensive none-the-less!!! The gasket cost like $35 and the work shouldn't cost no more than $200..But if you take it to Honda, that's what you get

Just a thin, flimsy seperator that sits between the head and block and keeps compression. Line it with goo and torque the bolts down, simple DIY.

Do it yourself. Take the head off and the belts, scrape the head and the deck, gasket sealant, get a thinner gasket to raise ratio...done. Or thicker if you wanna fo F/I.

I'd rather stick with my stock gasket for FI. That way if you get a boost spike or something else goes wrong, hopefully your gasket will blow before your engine does.

high revs like overrevving it, missing shifts, down shifting into redline, hard 7000 rpm shifts lol, overheating, basically having it in redline too much, more than the safe 7200 RPMs, more like 7500+ plus stuff likethat will cause the gasket to blow so it wont blow the motor
