b20z headgasket
 

I have been told by a reliable source to get a b18b stock headgasket...BUT then my mechanic told me to get a cometic...Both stated to get a arp headbolts. Now, which headgasket do i get and do i get a high compression

get a b20z OEM headgasket with arp headstuds.

perfect......now for my scond question...will my stage 2 cam fit...i was told to sell my stage 2 cam and get a factory b16 one... is there a way i can make my stage 2 cam fit without shaving the pistons

always match the headgasket to the block. btw whats your setup?

question is...im doing a b20 vtec...b20z block...and a b16 head with omni valve springs and retainers.. NOW, i have a stage 2 cam. I was told by defcon racing that it wont fit..ITS TOO BIG..he has a buddy club spec 3 and its perfect. A skunk 2 stage 2 is way too big and the pistons will hit everything. NOW i just bought this cam, he said i would have to shave the pistons down a bit. HE is assuming, he hasnt seen my build. ANyone have any experience...

Or should i just throw on a type r

im assuming hes referring to your valve to piston clearances? are you running aftermarket pistons?

nope factory

Tell the guy to notch bigger valve releifs in your stock pistions, if that guy says the cams still wont fit, than bring your car somewhere else.

there the problem then. if your gonna run a stage 2 cam. it will work alot better with an aftermarket forged, high compression piston. and you can buy them to account for valve to piston clearance. i know when guys are doing the k24/k20 hybrids with accord and element blocks, custom pistons are needed for the same reason. crv and tsx are different story. but sorry to get off track

notc bigger valve reliefs in my pistons eh....i havent heard of this before...i hope he can do this with a dremal

and the pistons dont need to be removed..and can he do it accuratly or dremel is good enough..also, is it safe and how epneive is it to do

do u guys seggest buying a golden eagle vtec kit...Or use factory dowels....Also, i ordered gsr arp head studs...just rite now..i passed on the cometic head gasket and im going to honda to order a factory b20 head gasket...I was told to order a b18b heaggasket from acura

and yes im ordering a gsr timing belt

prolem..went to jrp and they said that no factory headgasket has a 84mm and i need not go with factory..i should get cometic...so i caved..dam those high compreession teases

what the ****? no factory HG are made for 2.0L??

go to honda

i smell sales tactics

i already bought it..they said no headgasket has a factory 84mm bore casue im putting a b16 head

no biggie...it was 40 dollars chaper got it for 95 and apparently is made out of metal

and its higher compression..should be good for a little more hp 2-5 wheel hp
