I don't know about those numbers as I don't have a parts manual. What I do
know is that there are different thicknesses of headgaskets for the diesel
depending on how much the head has been planed. I believe that it is on
the back left (car's left) of the head that you should be able to see a
notch or notches in the portruding headgasket. These notches tell you how
thick of one to order. never heard of altrom, if they can't help, try
Brian Holm or Western Hemispheres, I have found both to be very good.
There is another good supplier known on the list, but the name escapes me
right now.
