Hi, what gasket would you run on a 1380 turbo, i was running the af460 copper gasket as i was always told the bk450 overhangs the bore slightly at 73.5mm?

i've run the bk450 with no overhang probs, I think it can vary block to block.

Depends how you had the bores done - I had a slight offset and there are no issues at 73mm so I doubt any at 73.5mm, there are a few photos from me on here. Schrödinger's cat - so which one am I ??? |

The AF460 is the better choice, it has a marginaly larger fire ring On 26th Oct, 2004 TurboDave16v said:
Is it A-Series only? I think it should be... So when some joey comes on here about how his 16v turbo vauxhall is great compared to ours, he can be given the 'bird'... On 26th Oct, 2004 Tom Fenton said:
Yep I agree with TD........ |

Cometic has no overhang @ 74.6mm - a much better choice - fit and forget! On 5th Sep, 2011 Vegard said:
