golden eagle headgasket doesnt block the holes tho

One gasket is the shape of the head, the other, the shape of the block - choose your poison, either will block something.

There was a guy that posted pics on b20 blocks with and with ge headgaskets.

Ge didnt block holes where as oem did i forogt where this person posted jt but i will find it and post up

Either way, alot of people are running GE, OEM, Cometic MLS combo's with absolutely no problems.

here is what Golden Eagle has to say about head gaskets. you can choose the OEM B20 gasket or GE Vtec head gasket. they cater for machined bores as well. on HT many people swear by OEM B20 gasket, while other despise the OEM B20 gasket.

if you're worried so much about holes being blocked then you should buy the GE kit

if you're worried so much about holes being blocked then you should buy the GE kit

or buy a Dremel...

i'd say from those images, th easiest would be to go with b16 gasket and dremel out the oil return holes. at least u wont have to deal with the rivets beingin the way.
