Purely because I'm with my pedantic f**king twit of a mate who thought it would be funny, he thought it would be funny to take the piss again seeing the argument it caused when I made a joke about dannyp's spelling, I know it is not funny so told him no, but he did it while I was in the loo, the "this is only a joke" bit, is to try to start an argument, ignore it, I'm going to.

Or better still if one of you mods could delete it before it does cause another argument I'd be appreciative?

mk3 2ltr headgaskets are interchangeable  fits where it touches and all that  hell you can even use a 16v one most are even the same part number.

you can even put a 2.0 head gasket on a 1.8 and it'll work  not advised tho.    it goes tits up when you put a 1.8 gasket on a 2.0 tho piston has a habbit of comeing up and tapping the fire ring on the gasket makes quite a worrying noise that dose

thanks for the reply headgaskets blown again any idea what can be causing back pressure in the water system a thought there was to much pressure in the system after about a week of getn the car back took it easy for about 600 miles gasket went again after 1700 miles do you think a need a bottom block or get the head skimmed AND pressure tested what does the piggy back ecu do aswell

inpect the head visualy for cracks,  8v motors are usally obvious when they crack heads and its something they do rarely.

skim the head  and duff it down with new bolts and a 2ltr gasket.  MLS gaskets really do require everything to be spotlessly clean and flat else they will leack  bit done right they are bloody good
