The F gasket is .039" compressed.
The B18 rods are notoriously weak. 6 bolt B20 rods are reinforced in the problem area and aren't a problem under 6500 rpm. 8 bolt B20 rods can be swapped for M rods if you don't think they're up to the task.
Ian, What readily available B20 rods are best for using in a B18?
Are the rod lower end bores the same size as B18 rods or are the B20 rod lower end bores larger?
Thanks in advance.
