comtic evo 8 gasket on evo 9???

hello guys,

just got my cometic head gasket today for my evo 9 and i was a bit disappointed coz i think they sent me a gasket for evo 8 , with part number c4157-051, i asked the seller and this is what he had to say:

"evo 8 and evo 9 gaskets are not exactly the same, but they will work on both. there is only one small difference and that is one coolant port is smaller on the evo 9 but the gasket doesnt effect that."

now i kno both evo 8 and 9 gaskets r not the same!

will this comtic gasket work on my evo 9 with part number c4157-051.???

if not does anyone kno part number for comtic evo 9 gasket???

first of all cometic gasekts are not the greatest HG to get should of just got another OEM one. The evo 8 gasket will not work effectively with the 9 hands down. so just invest in another OEM HG

The ix has smaller oil feed wholes in it because of the added oil supply directly to the mivec solenoid. I would use OEM
