Head Gasket For An F-163.

admin

Like the title said I need a Head gasket for an SA-250 with a Continental motor. I tried my guy at NAPA and no dice on the head gasket. The machine and motor are both an 89' with a distributor poking up through the head. I am going to try Foley Industrial Engines in the morning. Any help with a link or part numbers would be great. It is all I need to get my $300 "junk" SA-250 running (I bought it out of a bone yard with a rusted stuck motor(no rain cap for a few years), penetrating oil and time are great.) .Disclaimer; "I am just an a$$hole welder, don't take it personally ."

Reply:I gave NAPA the Fel-Pro Part number, and I will have it in the morning for $24.  My guy was cursing NAPA tech support for a while after.Disclaimer; "I am just an a$$hole welder, don't take it personally ."
Reply:Way back when I worked for a forklift dealer, I had one for a 6 cyl, A Y112 and F163 all in my van.  I would change them while the motor was still HOT so I didin't have to go back and retorque the head.  Have fun.David

Reply:I bought one at Carquest.  No higher than any other head gasket, I think around $20
Reply:The best money I have ever spent, it is burning gas and 7018 as of noon time today. I put the new head gasket in, static timeded it and pop, pop, pop, she fired up in a cloud of smoke which soon cleared. I flashed the exciter, chucked up a rod and zap, we are welding. I love finding other peoples junk .Disclaimer; "I am just an a$$hole welder, don't take it personally ."
