Still need a one hole head gasket
« on: May 28, 2013, 07:10:12 pm »
I received my two head gaskets from Canada via UPS today - perfect timing!



Man was I bummed when I opened the package and discovered they are three hole gaskets!
Part number Victor Reinz 61-31225-30

Back on the hunt :(

OK - all is well.
The three holes you see are not punched all the way through - only one is.

The new gasket is 2.12 mm

The one I had already installed and torqued several times (which only has one hole) measures 1.94 mm.
My guess is that the two I received will mash to the same thickness.

YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!

Big thanks to the very helpful dude to the North for really going the extra mile.

That makes more sense. I try to avoid UPS for international stuff.

Looking forward to seeing some videos

A pm and an address will get it to ya.
Frankly, I think its quite usable - just didn't want to chance it. BTW, I had it torqued to 125 ft/lbs per ARP spec.

I have the old HG from my 1.6 that was the 1 notch metal. Let me know if you need it for a template, as it was used.
