Hi all,

 

By any chance, does somebody know a dealer in the UK which has Cometic head gasket in stock for XU9J4? It's quite urgent.

 

Thanks

I bought a cometic gasket from burton power a few years ago, it was a custom 88mm item though! wasn't cheap at nearly £100!!

what's wrong with a Payen item?

Burton don't stock French stuff, they order it from the states!

 

 

 

there's 15 on ebay in the US.

@welshpug, didn't know Payen make MLS gaskets, what's your experience with them? not on the computer right now, but do you know if they make different thickness, like Cometic?

 

thanks for the replies

why do you want mls on an alloy block engine?

Well, yes the reason for an MLS gasket is because the increased CR (about 11.5), anyway, the gasket seems to be OK, but the head is most likely cracked

I have already contacted Burton Power and they have them in stock

I run 12:1 on a payen gasket. No issue.
