Cosworth Vega blown head gasket
10

Asked by IDVegaMan Apr 09, 2020 at 01:57 PM about the 1976 Chevrolet Vega

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have a 76 Cos. I just acquired.
Previous owner claimed it has a blown head gasket.
Is there a shop that specializes in Cosworths?
I assume this isn't you neighborhood parts store weekend type of repair.

If I am not mistaken the block was a standard Vega block with Cosworth internal parts. The head is the jewel of this engine which you want to take very good care of. I would not be surprised if a standard head gasket works.
