thank you very much

ok, well my friend talked to the people machine shop, and they said they took off .004" of an inch, which is = to about .1mm. Could he use an OEM gasket set, or does he have to buy a metal head gasket to compensate?

[eh?]

Stock will be fine.

butt............ a metal head gasket and arp head studs arent a bad thought!

[sjbsuperman1425]

he plans on getting ARP studs. and i guess the stock set is $200 and the metal is the same so yea lol

[eh?]

If he isn't going to make 600+ rwhp, stick with the stock HG and go with the arp studs. Save him the headache. The stock one is very strong and seals the best.
