Hello! I have in my K4 Busa is a Wiseco 81mm high compression piston kit. I'd like check the cylinder head condition. What is the size of head gasket? Equal with original size (0.030) or thinner (0.018). Or can I reuse the old gasket?
Thanks for help!

I wish I could remember. The last motor I built using Wiseco parts I think I purchased a new head gasket and it was fitted to the new bore. I would not use the old gasket back, they are cheap and not worth it when compared to the cost of the rest of the parts. Call Wiseco and ask them what they recommend, they are a good company to deal with. What does your builder tell you?

copper coat old gasket and reuse if no signs of seepage.
