Cometic mls

[digger]

all holes are between 12.4 to 12.5mm one end of gasket fits nicely the other is very tight could fit with some persuation i will just dremel it with a cylindercal stone if i still have issue with a new dowel. Same on two seperate gaskets oddly enough trying the tight hole on the other dowel doesnt fit either so the old dowel might be the issue

Much appreciated

I've had them send a gasket with the bottom layer having an incorrect bore size with other layers being ok, sent it back and they sent a replacement. Can you not dremel it and deburr, clean thoroughly etc??

kinda weird this could happen as all m20 gaskets should be the same in this regard and on file.

Hmm i can check if it's just one layer off. I was thinking about filling the split pin a little to reduce od


Do you know what the od of both holes on the gasket should be?

Brought a cometic mls and it won't fit on the m20 block. Doesn't have enough clearance for one of the the 2 12.50 mm dowel head locator pins. Looking at the gasket I can tell one hole is smaller. Anyone ever run across this before?
