I have a brand new SCE copper head gasket for a D16A6/D16Z6. Its .05" in. thick and will reduce your compression ratio (great for turbos). Using this head gasket will require o-ringing the block, but ones its done correctly, it will last as long as the motor. This head gaskets will never blow. I bought it for $75 plus shipping but will let it go for $60 (shipping not included). My loss is your gain. e-mail me at r_gabaldon@yahoo.com also I live in El Paso, Texas.

 

Keeping it fresh

 

what exactly is o-ringing the block, and how much would it cost. why do you have to do it?

 

Well, this is what I've been told- a machinist makes a groove around the cylinder sleeve then they make copper o-rings that are inserted into the grooves, so the gasket could seal better. Like I said it will never blow, and its reusable. This procedure usually cost around $80-100.
