I have a 2nd gen block w/ 3rd gen head, using an HKS 3rd gen head gasket. No problems. You would probably want to use the 2nd gen head gasket with a 2nd gen head.
The 2nd and 3rd gen blocks have identical water and oil ports, the only differences are in the heads. The 2nd gen blocks are stronger then most 3rd gens. You'll find a few old posts in the UK and internationl forums from poeple who have cracked 3rd gen blocks over and over again. The wall thickness is said to be thinner w/ the 3rd gens. On the other hand, 3rd gen heads flow better then 2nd gen's. A performance shop in Chicago flow tested both heads and a stock 3rd gen out flowed a 2nd gen w/ mild porting. Though with a full race port job, both heads would probably flow the same. -------------------- Scott
