    So I've had a look about and have seen that companies such a nitto list there head gaskets as fitting both straight cam aka red top sr20det engines and bent cam/ notch top engines and was wondering if anyone knew that the like of the cosworth mls gasket or any other head gasket that is listed for using with a bent cam engine could be used on a straight cam sr20 as have done some reading and seen that there is an extra hole for an oil gallery or something along those lines and noticed that on garage d the cosworth one was listed as not fitting straight cam engines
    Thanks in advance

    No as you said there is a difference in the oil/water gallery holes on the gasket.
