When replacing the head gasket on a v3300t-eb2 engine, it can be confusing to identify which one is needed due to the lack of "notches" for thickness identification. The factory gasket is a composite/graphite material, while the alternative is a metal gasket known as the "no notch version." With three options available from the dealer, it can be tricky to determine the correct one without notch marks for reference. How can I accurately identify the right head gasket for my v3300t-eb2 engine?
The variation lies in the thickness of the gasket, with the right gasket being chosen based on measuring piston protrusion. The reason behind the use of a graphite gasket and the lack of thickness options at times remains unclear. The 1 and 2-notch gaskets are commonly used as they are the middle choices available.
