g63b / 4g63 Cometic Head Gasket Query

[lotec]

Hi Guys,

I've been searching desperatly for a cometic head gasket for my g63b. as luck would have it (and as i suspected ) i cannot find one for the g63b.

i have found plenty of 4g63 head gaskets. my question is, will this headgasket work with the g63b? the blocks are 'similar' from what i am lead to belive, but does anybody know for sure?

failing that, does anybody know where i can get a cometic gasket for the g63b? has anybody had a custom one done?

Thanks guys. :knock:

4g63 is a g63b, b stands for belt drive, if your 4g63 has a timing belt then they are one & the same.

so if i ordered a gasket from a belt driven (they all are arn't they?) 4g63, it *SHOULD* fit correctly?

this is probably a more difficult question, but i am also having the same problem with a head stud kit. i'm thinking i might just have to bight the bullet order one and cross my fingers

[bazeng]

what is your g63b out of exactly?

[lotec]

that's a very good question. i would love to know the answer actually

i didn't perform the conversion, so i am very unsure :S

if you're calling it a G63B then it's out of a starion or similar, as in single cam.

people put VR4 twin cams heads onto those single cam blocks don't they?

if so, surely the head gasket is the same?

Isn't there some starion forum around where people know this shit?

[lotec]

yeah, ausstarion. i've done a few searches there, but nothing came up saying 'yes you can use the same headgasket'. i just assumed you could.

well i've ordered a cometic headgasket + arp headstud kit from a vr4 galant 4g63. i'll let everybody know next week when it arrives if i've wasted my money

bring on 23psi :D

All the 4g63 & g63b head gaskets are the same bar the very early chain drive motors, all is good, no money wasted.
