Head gasket size

Featured Replies

I have a metal head gasket I was going to use. The bore of the head gasket is about an 1/8 of an inch bigger than the engine bore. Can i use it? Thank you, TimsZ

I am waiting for a NISMO head gasket to arrive for my L24. After much discussion with Nissan Motorsports, we came up with a bore of 85mm and an installed thickness of 1.2mm for my stock engine. The bore of an L24 is 83mm so OEM specs are 2mm larger than the engine bore.

You needs will vary depending on engine size and whether it has been re-bored oversized.
