3VZE need's a metal head gasket who's going to help

Nashman00 · 06-17-2009, 10:26 AM

well i have found out that well there is none really on the market that makes them i find this really odd since the stock gasket is plain junk and is a common problem

i own 7mgte in my supra has the same fault and metal head gasket solves the issues

some thing needs to be done like teaming up and e mailing cometic http://www.cometic.com/ and the price's are pretty good

some time ago i help them make the 7mgte gasket for the supra and they made it cause the demand was there

so who is game

With a metal head gasket I hope both the head and block would be re-decked.

most of the time the factory finish is still there and good to go for mhg but as for the head will all ways have to be done smooth and mirror like as possible ( so no big groves or any thing your nail catches on )

Even after over heating? Usually the surface area gets warped even the slightest bit if you pop a HG and over heat (which can sometimes be the case). I know with working with MHG personally that if both mating surfaces are not smooth/decked the MHG can cause issues.

even after over heating most of the time the deck will be square it take alot to warp a deck but it can happen that what flat edge is for and if ti is warp i still slap one on cause rebuilding a motors cost a bit of money

bead type gakset are more forgiveing then stopper based gasket
