Technical drawing of the head gasket Author Post ezoo Member Offline 48 posts [100%] Kolding Jylland  Technical drawing of the head gasket 7:16 AM 6/18/2012 Reply  Edit I've build a hi comp setup and it wasn't long before my pos head gasket crapped out on me. So i got the idea of having a copper head gasket made, as i've previously done for other engines. Problem is i can't find any schematic or technical drawing of the 16v head gasket. If anyone happend to have one og have a link etc it would be great. Thanks in advance

I would just go with Cometic or HKS. You can order them in different thicknesses, too, for the right compression ratio. ezoo Member Offline 48 posts [100%] Kolding Jylland  Re: Technical drawing of the head gasket (Eric'sFreeAE86) » 5:43 AM 6/20/2012 Reply  Edit Well once i have the drawings and have made a program i could make the gaskets for about 20$ a piece. The difference is that copper gaskets lasts longer and can withstand the hi comp setups alot better. oldeskewltoy Offline 13133 posts [99%] Portland   » 8:00 AM 6/20/2012 Reply  Edit SCE already has a pattern and can make solid copper from .8mm upto 2.4mm Information is POWER... learn the facts!! http://www.toyodiy.com/parts/ USE it! I've been wrong before... and at somepoint in time, I'll be wrong again dr.occa Offline 2382 posts [93%] The Lonestar State  Re: Technical drawing of the head gasket (ezoo) » 8:01 AM 6/20/2012 Reply  Edit Quote, originally posted by ezoo » Well once i have the drawings and have made a program i could make the gaskets for about 20$ a piece.

True you save money but how does it compare to say a Cometic on longevity/dependability? 86 Garage Magazine "Strictly All Things 86" ezoo Member Offline 48 posts [100%] Kolding Jylland  Re: Technical drawing of the head gasket (dr.occa) » 8:24 AM 6/20/2012 Reply  Edit If you get your surfaces smooth enough its the best gasket you'll ever get. Both in terms of dependability and longetivity. And unlike graphite gaskets they're fully reusable. Via my work i've gotten in touch who cuts these gaskets. He mainly builds rally cars and restores minis and old fords. Since he has gotten the tools to cut them he hasn't used regular gasket. He will cut the gaskets for me, but meassuring it and getting the coordinates for the programs that run the machine takes alot longer than actually making it. So i was wondering if someone had done it before, which could save me some time.
