gasket set question

Post by Spotted »

Ok. quick question. does anyone know if a gasket set for a 94 miata will work with a 94 mx rs? I work @ autozone and can not find any parts for my mx in stock. they are almost all special order, and a lot are not even available, but we do stock a lot of miata parts for the same year/motor.
Specifically I am looking at the heag gasket set and the valve cover gasket. please help gotta get some leaks sealed up.
Thanks

No it wont work.. 94 Miata's got a 1.8L BP motor and the 94 MX-3 got a 1.6L B6DE motor.. at least in north america. Now.. if you have a head gasket for a 91-93 Miata with the 1.6L.. that could be the same.

Same here. Bout 2 mos ago, got a complete engine gasket set for 94/95 B6 DOHC MX-3 from some guy's ebay store for less than $40 USD shipped cuz the seller saw I had it on a watch list and knocked a bunch off as a temp sale thing. Search ebay motors for 'B6 gasket' and you should see them still listed. Been on there forever and price keeps dropping.

Hey thanks Eric.

Spotted, Here's the headgasket set ebay listing from the same buyer's store I bought a full gasket set from. He doesn't sell many cuz of a typo in the listing (B16D instead of B6) but it appears to be the correct set. wth for $31 ya can't go wrong right?

that ebay link, it's the correct gaskets. They're made by Evergreen. I bought them for my B6 and all of the gaskets are a perfect match.

Just asking those who have purchased Ebay gasket sets...

Do they come with TB gaskets? I see valve seals, head, vc, intake, exhaust, sometimes oilpan... misc. o rings, what looks like exhaust gaskets like for between the cat and pipes... camshaft seals...

TB? I bought the full engine gasket set and it had everything required for the engine, I don't think it has anything beyond that.
