Obviously it's not right but has anyone done this.. I know the heads will be hotter than supposed to be. Some of the lower holes are open. Everything everyone said was use the gasket that matched the block... Damn internet research. I suppose I didn't take into account phase I v phase II Ej22 heads. I put the gasket on the block and gtg.. Never tried to line it up on the head like a dummy

Yes, you have to run the gasket that matches the bore size of the block. Can't run a 97mm gasket bore on a 99.5mm block bore. It just doesn't work.

 

The gaskets are easy to modify, especially if you have a hole punch that's the right size.

Just like up the gasket on the head and mark where it needs to be drilled. Drill a couple holes in each and you're done.

 

Pretty sure there is a writeup or two out there on how to do that.
