E30 Head Gasket Set on an E21

Post by Microang »

Hi,

I've been looking for a head gasket set for my BMW 320/6 and can't seem to locate one, however as it is an M20 engine is it possible to use the gasket set from an E30 like this one?

Thanks.

I believe that should fit just fine. Perhaps you need to order one or two small parts from the dealer separately, but perhaps this is all you need. Main parts like head, intake and exhasut gaskets should be ok. Anyone think otherwise?
