Head gasket does not match up with block ?
OK Guys,
I pulled the head gasket, As expected, between 3 & 4 it was completely missing - had a gap about an inch wide. If I could figure out how to post a photo i would. But the part that confuses me. On the intake side, the block cooling openings are singular, (not paired like the exhaust side) and not as oblong. The head gasket however, has the paired comma shaped oblong copper lined openings. and the gap between the 2 openings, partially covers the coolant hole in the block. Does this sound correct to you guys? I just went and looked at my spare block and it looks like it has the same arrangement. Is it acceptable for the head gasket to partially block the opening on the intake side.? |
