    What Headgasket with Big Bore Block ?

    I've Rebored to 82.5mm.
    The standard RS2 Spec metal head gasket is the same bore.
    My Mechanic is not too happy using a head gasket with same bore as the block.
    He says it should be overbored at least half a millimeter. Else it will lead to headgasket failure ....

    Any experience with this problem ?

    Head over to www.motorgeek.com and look at the gaskets they use there.

    They commonly use a custom one you can buy from 034
