1.6GTD head gasket and engine specs by regcheeseman on 26 Sep, 2011 06:22

I'm getting a MLS gasket made up for my 1.6 but my two manuals give conflicting info.
What is the correct thickness for a 3 notch GTD gasket - does that differ from a 3 notch AAZ gasket?
What is the bore size of the 1600 cylinders? -

76.48mm for a FRESH bore.
77.48 is max o/s on a 1.6, AFAIK.. -

All fibre gaskets the same for all the 1.6 diesels 1.61mm max.
Bores out to 77.5mm.
Everything the same on the diesel engines, ie RA SB, as well as the MF 1V etc Including rings.
The only difference I've found is RA and SB have different pistons from the others.

Not been about for a bit, what question might that have been? -

Day release from doing porridge?
I was referring to your thoughts that the injection pump cam heights for 1.6 pumps being mainly about 4mm, and not as I have seen so far 2.3mm. I was wondering if it was because of your dealing with lots of GTD pumps? -

pumping porridge is nearer the truth!
Found your question and replied. -

I found it... now your 2 threads are next to each other!
What is the physical difference between GTD pistons and the rest? I assume you know as you seem to have the SW UK collection of VW diesel engines.

Rarely taken any pistons out of any block, never compared any either - sorry.
