use the acl one as its about the best you can get for the small bore or the BK450 for a 1275 if you have a 1275 head on your car.

Er did i say use this BK450 if you have a 1275 or maybe im speaking a different language here.
THe ACL gasket is the best gasket for the 1100 turbo or not its the best gasket you can get for it.
THe BK450 is for a 1275 different holes etc and wont work on a small bore head.

I've got the BK450 on my 998, but I've got the 1275 head on mine....
As they say, Use the Gasket to suit the head, NOT the block......

Its black and white now... grab the ACL one....

BTW it doesn't mention 1098 anywhere on the packaging.... strange! :lol:

Funny how BL didnt recognise the 1098 as a good engine and deamed it crap form the start, it wont rev or make power they said. but how wrong were they.

Yep, there's lots of Sprite/Midget racers who would agree with you. GR, too. 8)

personally i think they are way better than the 998 and a std 1275.
I used to rece one and it flew it had balls that would see 8k all the time and way brliiant, but i did blow it up numerous times and have vowed to do 1300plus motors now only working on 1100 for customers, but i still have a few parts hidden away for me, for whren i build the ultimate motorkhana motor.

i agree with BL
my worked one with a 731 cam will see 7000 with a standard carby and is very smooth, but its been bored, balanced and polished..

the ones that i've had that have been completely stock won't rev

they will fail a lot sooner than a 998 or 1275 if revved hard..
stroking is bad.. it will make you go blind.
