What is the best head gasket to use. I heared that the buddy club ones are nice and I heard that Cometic head gaskets are really good when going boost. They lower your compression a lil bit and they are stronger than a OEM replacement.

But I dont know? I dont even know if mine is going out it is only leaking oil from right above the block stamp, only in that corner. Maybe the head stud backed off on torque a little bit? The head gasket is only like 5000 mile old!! Why would it leak there and only there. There is no anifreeze in the oil either.

I am stumpped :1

 

used one with copper spray

 

jb weld

 

Dount your head gasket is leaking the oil.

Best Gasket: OEM with Copper Spray.

 

Most b-series leak oil at that corner....don't know why, but it's known amongst honda enthousiats that it happens alot.
most people use OEM..they are one of the best HG you can get.
unless if you want to lower compression you can get a Cometic at the thicknes you want to lower it

 

i know it costs more than a stock head gasket and copper spray, but i'd recommend a cometic head gasket.

 

just ordered my hks 0.7mm

 

OEM and cometic are the best out there IMO

 

If you're leaking oil there, check the VTEC solenoid gasket and the o-ring for the VTEC pressure switch. If that doesn't work, check the o-ring on the distributor and the 10mm hex plugs that hold in the rocker arm shafts they have an aluminum crush washer that you can replace. Most people think that b-series leak oil from the headgasket. The only spot there that could leak oil is from the VTEC oil supply which is on the intake side. There are many other easy things that could be leaking and nobody every bothers to check those first.

 

eristic gaskets for me....
