Headgasket
I know people say get oem HR headgasket for the DE, but I'm boring it out .020 over, and I think you cant use a 95.55MM head gasket with a 96 MM bore but I could be wrong. Sorry for the newb question!

HKS and Cosworth have proven themselves for years on the forums. Pick your preference.

Dynosty has their own made - get from them and they will tell you the correct size. All the same price afaik.

Yup, an OEM HR head gasket will be fine; I just put 10k miles on my built motor.

i would not use a HG smaller diameter than your bore, when the properly sized gaskets are available. I have a 96.5 bore and run the HKS 97mm gasket
