Head Gasket Confusion.
the_big_1 - 15/5/21 at 03:53 PM

Hi Guys,

Had to take the head off my Silvertop to see whats going on.
Going to get the head pressure tested and skimmed if needed.
Looking at head gaskets, I used Victor Reinz one before.
But now there seem to be different part numbers but all listed as Silvertop Mk2 Mondeo.
How do I know which one to get, incase my current issues was wrong gasket (all fitted and aligned well)

Cheers!!!

The machine shop themselves should if they know what they are doing should be able to recommend the correct gasket. There is a chance you'll need a thicker one if you get the head skimmed. Personally if it didn't need skimmed I'd just get the original OEM gasket Ford used, maybe Burton power could advise what part number that was.
