I'm in the process of putting my motor together now. It's bored over .030 I tried using search function but this forum has been finicky latley and it isnt working.
Recommendations? part #'s would be wonderful. I can use a stock size one with that bore right? atleast i was told that.
For reference its a 92 block with a clear water 0331 head.
The search is working fine for me.. if you are having issues then take screenshots and contact me via PM.
Most Jeep head gaskets come with a 4" bore.. so any stock Head gasket will be fine... although they do come in different compressed thickness's. Most of us choose the thinnest gasket to maintain a smaller quench. For us the desired quench is the head gasket thickness.
Thank you for the timely Responses, i really appreciate both of your efforts.
As far as the search issue Admin, at all times on this sight i have a phpbb DEbug in the header with about 4 lines of coding.
The search function is working for me now. I think today June 3,2012 the internet as a whole had multiple holes. I had issues with connections to my servers and a few of the sites i host as well as a few major companies Host had issues aswell. Ill give you an update if I hear anymore.
on the original subject though. i plan to get the perma torque severe duty.
Just for reference...ALL...I mean ALLL jeep headgaskets have a 4.0 bore. I needed a oversized a while back due to a screwup in porting my combustion chambers and the ONLY headgasket in the WORLD bigger than 4.0 was a copper racing gasket from SCE in california had a bigger dia at 4.060. I beat this issue to death, but they are not out there plus the copper leaked like a siv...at .030 over a stock headgasket will do fine but i have the 505 specially made MLS gasket installed now and it fixed all my problems...plus a new unscrewed up head . Its pricey...75 but its a nice gasket...beats the hell out of the 300 copper.
