I was told to start a new thread on this one.
I want to remove the head gasket from my 1.7. Can I remove the head gasket and still use the stock base gasket? I know there are replacement base gaskets to bring it back to stock compression but, will leaving the stock base gasket raise the compression too much? I can't find the link to the calculator to look this up. Sorry if it seems like I'm (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/dead horse.gif) but thanks for the info |

You're democratic, aren't you? Flip-flopper!
(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif) Anyway. That was what I was talking about. I can't see any advantages to leaving the head gasket in, except to keep from having to calculate the head space. And I can't find anyone to support/disagree with me. There used to be an abundance of people around to disagree with me..... That's usually how I learn things the best. Get other people's opinions and then use that to base my own opinions on things. People probly avoid my posts now. Whatya think, Rand? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/sad.gif) |
