72zcar Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 Real quick, n42 block and n42 head. new bearings, turbo rings, rebuilt head stock. Stock turbo from 84 300zx (6-8 boost). I have been reading here and other places until my eyes can't take any more. I have read felpro hg will blow with 6-8 while others have said they run it up to 20 with a felpro. Others say get a Nissan hg this is the way to go SO... just when I'm think Nissan...I think well why not get a 82-83 turbo gasket (felpro or Nissan not sure just thinking), this should solve all my problems Then I read ONLY get a gasket that matches the block (n42) because the hg may block water passages otherwise. So this takes the 82-83 turbo hg out of the equation...or does it, not sure? Don't have 150 for a copper Ok, I'm babbling... my eyes are tired, I'm confused, now wtf hg should I use Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhaTTy Posted May 18, 2006 Share Posted May 18, 2006 Yeah.. goto Napa and get a victor reinz gasket.. You can google it and find out that several top speed dragsters running insane amounts of boost are very satisfied with the victor reinz(sp?) gasket. And best of all, its affordable. Hope that helps.
