Storm Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 I thought I would pass on to y'all a PN for thin headgaskets for the EJ22. I just picked up a set I had made through Cometic gasket in a thickness of .027" as opposed to the OEM .040". If you're looking for good gaskets and want to bump the CR a bit too, these'll fit the bill. PN: C4262-040........EJ22E SOHC 16V, 98mm MLS .040" (stock) PN: C4262-027........EJ22E SOHC 16V, 98mm MLS .027" (thin) These should run about $90 for the set. Enjoy!

NoahDL88 Posted May 13, 2006 Share Posted May 13, 2006 What does it bump the compression ratio up to? Would i have to run a higher test gas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legacy777 Posted May 13, 2006 Share Posted May 13, 2006 Other thing to consider, you may have made the engine an interference engine now.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Storm Posted May 13, 2006 Author Share Posted May 13, 2006 I don't know how much the CR is effected yet. It shouldn't require higher octane. Post 97 EJ22s are already interference. Jay Storm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
