I am putting a 2.0L exhaust on my 1.7L 914 and i was wondering do i buy the 2.0L cylinder head gasket or the 1.7L cylinder head gasket.
Thanks,
James

the copper ones--I think they are all the same.

get a dab of grease or something to get those damn things to stay, and heat each copper gasket REAL hot and quickly throw it in some water, that'll soften it up some (opposite effect with steel)

softer copper = better seal.

I had to buy some pick things to get the old ones to come out....but i think they all finally came out.

b

is that necessary? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/huh.gif) never heard of that....

i thought they were already annealed .....
