Stock gasket will hold up to a stroked A15. Prep & torque carefully.

For a high-boost A-series, use a custom Copper gasket from Cometic.

Ah, you mean a bored A15. The Nismo gasket is oversized and works with 79 mm pistons. I have 78.5 pistons in my A14 which give it more CCs than a stock A15. With 79s you'll be over 1600 i think.

Stock A15 stroke with 80mm pistons is 1649cc. The Nismo gasket handles high RPMs no problem (8500 rpm).

The Nismo gasket is 79mm
Bprojects Australia sells a 80.5 gasket.

You might ask Bige what he recommends.

Decided to head down to Obriens Aluminum in Windsor, using my warped head gasket get them to make me one out of copper, my mechanic suggests that its my best bet as only the 2 centre holes in the gasket are warped and the outer 2 are just fine.Cheers guys!
