    look for a head gasket for a 13N engine, it is the same size but slightly thicker ast std. I think I have one at home somewhere.

    Hi Gary,

    Whats the diameter, im boring out to 78.3, i would have thought the 13n head gasket will be too small.

    Struggling to get a compression plate so i may just recalc the pocketing of the pistons to accommodate the cr required.

    get a HG made there are places that make them to varying thicknesses. iirc they are about £100, got to be easier than machining pistons......
