    Blowsion

    Stock head gasket/water flow/o-rings

    Building up 2 ski's for the first time, and noticed something that I really don't understand. When putting the stock head gasket on a Kawi 750, I noticed that most of the water jackets are covered up by the gasket, with only a couple smaller holes to allow water to flow through the gasket into...
