2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.4 motors / strokers
I will agree... the head gasket selection for a 4g64 MIVEC engine is quite bleak.
I'd really like to use the OEM one modified for the 86.5mm/87mm bore like AMS uses, but they won't sell me just the headgasket. Seems odd to me.

You would still need to mod both to make it work correctly for the deck height increase from the 4G63 to the 4G64. We have been using the $90 dollar Cometic with great success, so far all the PE headgaskets we have used have failed in service. They seemed very promising to begin with but arent working out over time and especially not considering the price.
What is the camshaft suggestion for 4g64 mivec engine with ported head +1mm valves 9.5-10 :1 compression ratio and with an FpBlack or similiar Turbo ?
I wrote an email for English Racing, I heard that they have special GSC cams for 2.4 engine. Also I'm thinking on the stock GSC cams between the S2 or S3 or some Kelfords . I would use it with a Manley upgraded single valve spring and light weight titanium retainers.
On E85 will you go with near 10:1 compression ratio or 9.5:1 ?

Fails at 39psi. Modding the stock fire ring isnt so bueno.
great info! Has anyone ever done anything like a gsc (or other) 94mm crank in a 4g64 block and add that extra 6mm of room to the rod. Looks like they use a 156mm in the 63 block so that would give you a 162mm rod with a 94mm stroke. assume .020 over and you got a 2.285l with a 1.72 r/s.
k now i just need a few stacks to suddenly appear in my bank account.
Honestly though, is the extra rpm (money) gonna do any good for anything other than a straight line over a budget 2.4? Unless your in that little extra head room for a majority of the time, essentially on drag/highway pulls, your not utilizing the benefits of such a motor anyway. A standard 2.4 has its benefits all through the rpm range we drive the most on the street or road course after all.
Just thinking out loud a little
