hmmm...Cometic lists (2) different bore options in their catalog for head gaskets- 90mm and 91mm yet there are (3) bore options listed on their website.

Courtesy Parts has separate part numbers for '91-'94 and '95-'98 OEM Replacement. If all else fails, call them. Sorry, I have no personal experience with this.

Figure out what you want by what you do with the block bore. If it still doesn't make sense, then call them man.

Wiseco is also a local company. ;)

They have different options in case you want to bore out your motor. And there are usually different thicknesses for different compression ratios. blah blah blah. talk to a tech about it at the company.

How much HP is your goal? And, don't say 500 :blink:

Don't buy shot-peened rods.
