What head gasket to use? S14 head on s13 block - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Hey guys doing the head gasket on my car here shortly and have a new felpro for a S13 kade sitting around.

I have a s14 head that was rebuilt about 5000 miles ago that I am swapping over to my s13 motor.

My question is do I need to purchase a S14 headgasket or am I able to use the S13 gasket? Or is there even a difference?

The S14 head would be modified to fit the S13 block........ so I would say you need a S13 Gasket.

I dont understand the work though... why would you Not want the High Port Head..... and replace it with Low Port and possably VVTC?? Also you can't use a Top Feed Injector (unless you have the new Greddy Short Port or similar).... S14 SR is a pain in the ass... I know... I have one!!

lol yea the head gaskets are the same.

and you can put a dual cam head on a single cam block my buddy did it. you jus have to change a few things, the oil pan, timing cover etc.
