Make sure that both the head and block surfaces are dead flat. Type of gasket unsure though, ACL used to be the go but they are no longer made |

I used a 1275 gasket on a 68mm bore 998 with a 12G202 head, but a few water holes had to be moved in head and block. |

Thanks for the advice. Might explore the 1275 option further. I've heard that they will fit with some modification to align water jacket |
