I was wondering if anyone could tell me about this stuff???
Head Gaskets, for a Honda, they are called Multi-layered steel gaskets........really tuff and compensate for the "sheer" that happens between cast iron blocks and aluminium heads????.........don't know?????
The Lady said: link deleted......not allowed
"Yes sir we do have a gasket for you. This gasket goes for $93.99 per gasket. it will be part numbers H1692040s, and H1693040S"
Would my friend, a buddy with a Honda that has a blown head gasket and I'm fixing it, do better with this or just get the Fel-pro for less..............way lesssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss.......
Maybe these accuras have a head gaskets problem that would benefit from the extreme raceing gasket????....................Dont' know......................

I deleted your link because they aren't allowed.
I would just stay with the FelPro but have the head tested and planed if necessary.

Alright, I thought they were a little---REALLY---- expensive.
So nothing special about the Honda head and these gaskets come to mind???
Cool, Fel-pro it is......................

Everybody's got a gimmick to promote. Most just benefit the seller.

Well, the thing is:
I have been reading about superchargers, and motor blue printing and "o" ringing heads and EFI super performance engines with special head gaskets etc......bla bla bla........Map sensors and fuel maps...........etc........
SO,---as my sister would say-----I thought they might be a good fix for a TSB sort of problem. ya know, something that is known about.....................I don't know...........
So it's not....................Cool....................Thanks, Hammer....................You are the best brother.....................

OK, we got the heads off and all around the area (on the head) where the water jackets are open, the heads are pitted.
Not pitted a .003--these heads are pitted .25........That's right, a quarter of an inche deep. The area of the heads where the water jackets meet the
heads are shot..............The machine shop said they are "Dead"...........................
I'll try to take some pictures..............
SO,....................
we got new -rebuilt- heads and are getting new gaskets etc.......tomorrow.............
