Head gasket repair
 
As alot of you know my head gasket blew a while ago, so finally im going to start to fix it tomorrow. I bought a Cometic Mls head gasket, and some arp head bolts, so hopefully i can have her done before the weekends over :)

I was looking at your Sig and is this your jasper motor with 868 Miles that you are replacing the HG?

yes i have a prior thread if you care to check it out. Jasper will not cover the manufacture defect of the headgasket failure and the ring falure in cylenders 5 and 3. I pulled the head off in about 3 hours (damn iv been doing this too long) found out there are scores on cylender bores 5 and 3. I checked it with an inside-mic and i see about .0023 difference from standard bore. I can easily rebore that in the shop. Its only 23 ten-thou so i might even be able to hone that out. Heres my parts list im going to throw together over the next few weeks.
