Cometic lists it for the 1994-1997 Mazda Miata (NA, 1.8L) and the 1999-2000 Mazda Miata (NB1). The stock BP bore is 83 mm, so this gasket is for engines bored 2.0 mm oversize; match the gasket bore to the finished cylinder bore.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e85 mm round bore, sized for a BP block bored 2.0 mm over the stock 83 mm; Cometic also makes this gasket in C4560 (83 mm) and C4568 (84 mm) bores\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompressed thickness .027 in, thinner than the 0.032 in factory 1994-2000 metal gasket, so compression is slightly higher than stock and piston-to-head clearance is reduced; Cometic does not publish a compression ratio for this gasket, so calculate it and check clearances for your build\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3-layer MLS (multi-layer stainless steel) construction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOuter stainless steel layers carry a .001 in Viton rubber coating; installed dry, without additional sealant (Cometic says extra sealer can hinder sealing)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRequires smooth, flat and true head and block deck surfaces; Cometic recommends a surface finish of 50 Ra or finer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade to order by Cometic; use the head bolt (fastener) manufacturer's torque values\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFitment:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1994-1997 Mazda Miata (NA, 1.8L BP-ZE) and 1999-2000 Mazda Miata (NB1, 1.8L BP-4W), with the cylinders bored to 85 mm. Not for 2001-2005 Miata (NB2, including the 2004-2005 Mazdaspeed): those heads have different coolant passages and Cometic sells separate gaskets for them (C4983 84 mm and C4984 85 mm bore). Not for the 1990-1993 1.6L (B6).
