F40 RACING HEAD GASKET

[flamespitter]

Does anyone out there know where I can obtain an upgraded/race head gasket for a racing f40?The standard one is not strong enough and it need to withstand up to 700 bhp and 1.5 boost.
Alternatively who are the best race fabricators for this part?
Cheers!

Theres a guy on Ferrarichat who seems to be a true expert on F40s. He's got at least one F40LM and others.

I can't remember his name of the top of my head but someone else (tonyh?) should

A PHer on here has an extensively modded F40 but I can't remember his username. I have his email address though so I've emailed him this thread, maybe he can help.

If you want a proper race gasket you will need to remove the engine and have an "o" ring system fitted. I believe this is what Michelotto did with the LM/GTE. I think the o ring is made from copper. To fit this the decks and heads will need machining for them to fit.

I would suggest that you contact Michelotto. I know they are extremely busy at present. You should speak to Christiano. They do an engine overhaul for about 19,000 EUROS, which includes a dyno and re-map etc.
