May Be The Easiest Question Ever!

i recently tore the big bore kit off my '02 banshee in order to put the stock cylinders back on. i sold off all the big bore stuff and sent the other cylinders out to be bored, polished and honed. didn't plan on having them bored, but the machinest threw in a brand new set of .030 wiseco pistons he had laying around so i went ahead and had him match the cylinders to them. here's the tough question. i've got a ton of brand new aftermarket parts and one of those parts was a top end gasket kit from vito's but it's for a big bore. the description on the website says 'unmachined stock head and cylinders up to 70mm' for this kit. according to this description i would be okay using this gasket set, but the machinest told me to purchase a stock top end kit. am i safe using the gasket kit from vito's or should i order a different one? the part number for the big bore kit is 11-8151 SKU VBB400TEK is anyone could help me out.

 

thanks in advance.

get one for a non big bore motor

with the larger gasket you have a better chance of etching the head and cylinder surface. For the cost of a head gasket it isnt worth the risk of a fresh topend...

will do. i just figured if i could use the gasket set from vito's, it's free and in my hands already, but i really don't feel like messing up my $360 cylinder job either. thanks for the help.
