Specs At A Glance

Good To Know

Q: Does this head gasket require new head bolts? A: Replacement head bolts are commonly recommended during a head gasket job since many OEM bolts are torque-to-yield. Confirm torque specs and bolt reuse guidance for the 1800 engine before assembly.

Q: Is this gasket reusable if the head is removed again? A: Head gaskets are generally single-use and should be replaced any time the head is separated from the block. A fresh gasket ensures a proper seal.

Slight variation in finish or dimensions may occur between production runs, and fit can depend on serial number, so confirm compatibility before ordering.
