Please be aware of these on ebay
Sorry for the poor image quality but all I had was my phone
I fitted one of these gaskets to Ian's car after he bought it, it leaked striaght off, once it had been under pressure you can easily tell where the problems are, Ian called the supplier and he didn't argue at all he just sent another and that leaked striaght off too
And If your thinking something else was wrong, Noooo head was perfect and so was the block, the head was tested after the first gasket to make sure
Top is the dodgey one, bottom is the ones I use and worked 100% first time
Good one on the left, dodgey ebay on the right , also check out where the gasket is pinched together, on the good one it is a pinch on the bad one it actually punches right through the layers
The one on the right was a bad one off ebay, only small differences so hard to tell on the quality of image, basically the silver flaps on the top at 1 O'clock & 11 are thick and welded to a burn mark, round the cylinders the black varies in distance from 1.5 to about 3mm, the black its self is not in line with the silver holes and round the silver tabs there is another void space
These are really small differences but gaskets like these will never seal,
