looking through the February 2016 GCR, the only reference I could find for the intake manifold to cylinder head gasket was:
s. Miscellaneous
1. The timing chain/sprocket cover may be altered or replaced.
2. The use of the following non-standard replacement parts is permitted provided their use does not
result in any unauthorized modification of any other component:
A. Fasteners - nuts, bolts, screws, studs, etc. Intake manifold fasteners may be of either a socket
head or hex head configuration, and must be 5/16” diameter.
B. Gaskets, except head gasket.
C. Washers.
D. Seals.
E. Connecting rod, crankshaft, and camshaft bearings of the same size and type as original. Normal
oversize/undersize bearings are permitted. This does not allow reducing the........
does anyone see any other rules that impose constraints on what's used for a gasket between the intake manifold and the cylinder head??
while looking for the intake manifold to cylinder head gasket rule, I couldn't help noticing the very curiously written rule at the beginning of the Kent section. by my count there's five gasket surfaces on a Kent cylinder head:
1.) cylinder head to cylinder block interface
2.) cylinder head to exhaust interface
3.) cylinder head to intake manifold interface
4.) cylinder head to valve cover interface
5.) cylinder head to thermostat housing interface
wonder how much can be removed from which interface or interfaces before it's non-compliant??:confused:
12. Kent Engine
a.General
1. Components shall not be interchanged between the Kent and
Cortina versions of the engine unless specifically authorized.
2. The engine shall not be altered, modified, or changed in any
respect unless specifically authorized herein. When a system
is specified to be “unrestricted” (e.g. paragraphs p and q), the
restrictions of this paragraph do not apply.
3. The gasket face of the cylinder head may be resurfaced provided
the maximum compression ratio is not exceeded.
