Is 1mm dia bigger head gasket OK? was created by droptail
Wiseco sent me a replacement head gasket that is 1mm bigger bore than I asked for. That would mean an inset or step of 0.020". Is this a concern?

Thanks

from my understanding the bore should cover 1/2 -2/3 of the sleeve so it would prob be ok
