i use the genuine vitara gasket with my 75.5 pistons
you will need the part number tho, £50
or if you know someone with the right vitara, you can use the vin number

Just tried to order one of these head gaskets 11141-61J00, the part number is not recognized & may be out of date. Anybody got an alternative part number?

Update, the head gasket is from the APV or high spec super carry, neither of these were ever sold in the UK. My local Suzuki dealership has now found the right part & its Japanese market only. He is ordering me one in at about £80.00 plus shipping costs.

Regards

Jerry
