I gotta ask how your getting around the oil and water passages problem?

Honestly, i think this is territory not too many have accomplished (if any). Im sure we would love to hear your ideas.

I picked up an 3S-GE head out of a 89 celica, yes its was a 2.0 but i notice that the blocks water and oil passages look about the same. So i took my 5S head gasket and sat it on the 89 3S, perfect fit i meen it was the same thing. Now the 5S and 3S oil passages were the same but the water passagges were different, i notice the head gasket just block off parts of the flow to allow it to work fine.
