as your attorney, I advise you to get a quality MLS head gasket. I wouldnt trust an OEM HG to hold up to 12:1 compression.

Why? Just wondering what you are basing your opinion on, it holds upto pressures from the 4AGZE???

to tell you the truth, I hardly trust any OEM HG to keep it together for increased compression and havent seen it done with aftermarket high comp pistons(more than 10.3 oem high comp)

I asked this question for my 81.5mm pistons and was told to get a HG with 82mm bore.

I was told to get the HG measurd to determine if its ardy over sized but it is OEM not MLS so it may noy hold since the materials are diff . The OEM seems flimsy and would hage a pre mature breakage
