I am wondering am I the only person that is ran into this issue? This is what is holding back my entire build, because my car overheated and the headgasket was gone! So no my car will have a OEM F20C engine with my same turbo kit, but I was planning on using my built block.

How many other have had a headgasket failure and had their motor built by Laskey Racing? Also, what steps did you take afterwards?

Did Laskey build the entire engine or the short block?

 

I have the same problem in one of my costumer cars is NOT A LASKEY ENGINE but is the same head gasket

Built engine GE Block 87mm Cp pistons ,crower rods and the cometic head gasket and the car fail 3 head gasket

I thing is the machine work or something or I put something worng in the engine or the timing in the tuned nop

Call GE buy a Stock 87 mm head gasket (bore out) and never had a problem in the past 5 years....

Good luck

 

Sideways i like your signature

sounds like the cometic is JUNK.

 

Yea my block needs to be resleeved... It will use a GE headgasket as well. Until then no built block this summer but an OEM F20c should suffice with my setup. Really angry Laskey used this headgasket if it fails all the time...

 

Studs or headbolts?

 

theres no reason to use anything but oem as far as the HG goes if you are on a built block.

 

Laskey used ARP headstuds, if that helps? That's what I thought when you have a built block a headgasket to lower the compression isn't needed???

 

I second this
