Isn't the OEM HR head gasket double layered metal? I'm not sure on the actual thickness of all the options for our HR motor.

 

Damn I just looked up that cosworth head gasket and it's freaking expensive haha

 

yea lol. i want to look into the dynosty one they had some sourced and made to spec for them that are suppose to be similar to the hks gasket but available in overbore. waiting for them to open tommorow to give them a jingle

 

what caused the failure on the cosworth?

 

not sure yet just got the heads off at 5 today, sleeves look good, going to mic all the headstuds and see if any of them stretched

 

got some headgaskets on order and the heads will be done being resurfaced later this afternoon so hopefully can start putting it back together mid next week when the headgaskets arrive.

cosworth is the only one to make aftermarket gaskets for Hrs after researching a tad more. so ordered up 2 more since theyre no longer being produced just in case.

 

headgasket is arriving today and reassembly will start. Turbo's are shipping out from gtm today aswell so those should be in friday or monday. And i ordered a set of ID 1000's just for some head room that should be in sometime next week. if all goes well car should be up and going early april

 

got a good deal from 08nismoz and picked up his haltech platinum and HR patch harness today. car is now done XD just needs to go back together

 

last the goodies came today

 

internally gated??

 

gates are welded shut, its how gtm orders them im assuming to maintain the t25 housing

 

I love the table cloth with the beautiful grapes on it. LOL, looks like you have some work mang. Keep us posted. Looks good.

 

Lmao table cloth at work in the lunch room, and that there is XD. Should go quick once we get cracken at it.

 

updates?

 

just finished putting the heads on and springs and cams in today with my engine builder. cam gears and timing and everything will be set tommorow and exhaust manifolds and turbo's should get bolted up

 

pictures would make this thread 1000X better

 

looks the same as the pictures from last time back a few pages haha :P

 

ditch the conventional gaskets and just use this

 

Haha or jb weld
