I didn't look at the pics, but if it's not brand new, do not use it.

Yup, blown.

Just separate an OEM head gasket and use the shim between it.

I'm sorry but you could say I'm noob in this stuff.
Do you mean to buy the OEM headgasket and use the OEM outer layer instead of the InlinePRO outer layer?

thanks guys for your replies

reuse the thick metal plate in the middle and use new outer layers

Just use an oem gasket without any spacer. You will keep blowing those over and over again. What sort of power are you making?

i know OEM is better but right now i cannot afford to retune the car that's why i just want another 3mm to keep the car running.
the car is tuned @ 17psi but never dyno'd. I'd say around 340whp as fuel here is super super shitty.

can I reuse the OEM head bolts? i as using ARP but i wanna go back to OEM now and give it a try

Please do yourself a favor and use an OEM Honda head gasket. I will help you out until you get the money together for a tune. Shoot me a pm and I will give you my e-mail address.
