Athena 330188R Racing Head Gasket for Honda K20 & K24 Engines

When increasing the performance of a Honda K-Series engine, maintaining a reliable seal between the cylinder head and engine block becomes increasingly important. The Athena 330188R performance head gasket is designed for selected Honda K20 and K24 engines, providing a performance-oriented replacement for engine builds where dependable cylinder sealing is required.

Featuring an 87mm gasket bore and 1.30mm thickness, the Athena 330188R is suited to a variety of naturally aspirated and modified Honda K-Series applications.

Designed for Honda K-Series Performance Engines

Honda’s K-Series engine has become one of the most popular platforms for road, track and motorsport tuning. Engines such as the K20A2 and K24A respond extremely well to performance modifications, making upgraded engine sealing components particularly important when rebuilding or modifying the engine.

The Athena 330188R has applications covering engines including:

• Honda K20A1
• Honda K20A2
• Honda K20A3
• Honda K24A

Popular vehicle applications include the Honda Civic Type R EP3, Honda Civic 2.0 i Sport, Honda Stream 2.0, Honda Integra 2.0 and Honda Accord 2.4.

87mm Bore & 1.30mm Thickness

The 87mm gasket bore makes this Athena head gasket suitable for selected K20 and K24 engine configurations.

Its 1.30mm gasket thickness makes it particularly useful for performance engine rebuilds where the engine builder requires this specific gasket dimension.

Always confirm cylinder bore, block specification, cylinder-head machining and required compressed gasket thickness before installation.

Ideal for Modified Honda K20 & K24 Builds

The Athena 330188R is an excellent consideration for:

• Performance Honda K-Series rebuilds
• Civic Type R EP3 engine builds
• K20 engine tuning
• K24 engine tuning
• K20/K24 hybrid builds where dimensions are suitable
• Track-day cars
• Motorsport applications
• High-performance naturally aspirated builds
• Turbocharged and supercharged builds where the engine builder confirms compatibility
• Engine rebuilds requiring an 87mm × 1.30mm performance gasket

Why Upgrade the Head Gasket?

As engine output, cylinder pressure and operating temperatures increase, the cylinder-head sealing system becomes increasingly important.

A quality performance head gasket can form an important part of a correctly prepared engine build, helping maintain an effective seal between the cylinder block and cylinder head.

For high-performance engines, the head gasket should always be selected alongside the correct head fasteners, surface preparation, machining tolerances and engine-builder specifications.
