Default Which Head Gasket do i need ???

I need head gaskets to mate a MY97 UK Turbo Block to MY00 UK Turbo Heads.

I've previously been told that i may need different head gaskets than what come as standard with a MY00 head gasket set.

Is this true?

if not what will i need?

The piston bowl depth controls the head gasket thickness. I'd use thick gasKets from Vers 4 STi.

In stock if you need some.

Is there any difference between the gaskets used for open and closed deck blocks?
