    Can any tell me what the numbers on my head gaskets mean

    Ok I found numbers on my head gaskets
    27-412471

    0502

    338
    If you blow the pics up it's clear
    I got a story with this motor that it started out as a 175 and was turned into a 225 I don't know weather to believe the guy or not. Was hoping these numbers would tell me something to confirm it or not. Or at least give a part number to match up

    3.38 would be the gasket bore. The other numbers who knows. That’s a standard gasket for a 2.4

    As for “turning” a 175 into a 225....that might be a stretch unless a good amount of internal work was done in the motor.
