RCS 1.4 question
I was wondering if RCS 1.4 has a head gasket. I had to remove the head from my brand new RCS to get it fitted inside the cowling and notice the absence of a head gasket. Is it safe to start the engine. Thanks

Well this is the response I got from RCS. Can anybody help to what it means.
"Engine is equipped with an aluminum crush type gasket.
Thanks,

It is a small aluminum gasket that is approx 0.020" thick and is situated around the domed protrusion on the cylinder head itself.

Thanks Mike for the info. I think I was I looking for a conventional gasket, that is why I could not see it I take a look again.
