Proper head gasket install

(1/2) > >>

Hawkeye58:
Hey guys,
Using either of the all metal head gasket choices, the .4 or .2
What is the correct side up? Raised ridges up, or down?

Foxx4Beaver:
typically Up
but also make sure the holes for the water jackets are lined up/configured properly before you put the head on and torque it down...meaning take a look at how they line up with the ridges down also, just to be sure.

dave916:
Ridges down as far as i can remember  but the

Smaller water way holes on gasket  on right side / exhaust side/ water inlet from pump side
