williamjernigan Posted February 16, 2005 Report Posted February 16, 2005 Where can I get a .010 thin head gasket for banshee at. What about a thick base gasket? Will it change the port timing and make it better or what? Quote
zilladude Posted February 16, 2005 Report Posted February 16, 2005 The stock head gasket is only .008 thick. There are thicker base gaskets out there to raise the cylinders slightly. You would have to have the head machined to increase the compression. Quote
jonnyrebel2004 Posted February 16, 2005 Report Posted February 16, 2005 I have a brand new Weisco head gasket I would sell if your interested. Thanks Travis Quote
SANDSTAR Posted February 16, 2005 Report Posted February 16, 2005 make one out of a bud light 18 pack cardboard box. Last time at the dunes, I had a buddy that had rebuilt his topend before the trip and had somehow bent his head gasket before putting it on. He thought it would be ok, but it started leaking as soon as the motor warmed up. Some old dude came riding up on a 185s as we were looking at the situation. He told us to cut one out of a Bud light box. My buddy ran with a bl gasket all weekend. Worked great. Quote
