Technical Specifications

Installation Guide

1. Preparation: Remove the cylinder head and clean all mating surfaces thoroughly to eliminate debris, oil residues, or old gasket material.
2. Inspection: Verify that the cylinder head and valve stem surfaces are free from scratches or warping. Replace any damaged components before proceeding.
3. Placement: Position the head gasket onto the cylinder head, aligning it precisely with the bolt holes and valve stem openings.
4. Valve Stem Seal: Insert the valve stem seal into the designated slot, ensuring it sits flush against the valve stem.
5. Reassembly: Carefully place the cylinder head back onto the engine block, aligning all bolts. Tighten in a cross‑pattern sequence to achieve even pressure.
6. Final Checks: After reassembly, perform a compression test to confirm that the gasket is functioning correctly and no leaks are present.
