Forged engine is being stripped down and will put in ARP head studs, but need a new head gasket.
Ran a standard gasket and standard head bolts before and I'm pressurising the coolant at 270+bhp.
The pistons are wossner pocketed jobbers. slightly oversized at 78.7.
Unsure if head has had anything off before. Probably will have had.
Closest Athena gasket thickness I can get to a stock thickness is 1.4mm. Favouring Athena with the fire rings. However their bore size is 80.50 when others are 80.
Presuming this will be fine... or any other suggestions/sizes/ideas?
