Specs At A Glance

Good To Know

Q: Do I need to torque the head bolts after installing this set? A: Yes, always torque the cylinder head and base fasteners to the factory specification in the correct sequence. Retorque after the first heat cycle to keep the seal tight.

Q: Can I reuse these gaskets if I take the head off again? A: No, gaskets are single-use and should be replaced any time the head or cylinder is removed. Reusing a compressed gasket risks a leak and poor compression.

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