Top end gasket kit

I'm getting my 500 engine rebuilt and my top end gasket set just came in and I was wanting to make sure they sent me the right one. Its a cometic kit part #415272 it has a stainless steel head gasket but it says its 88mm and I thought the stock bore size was 86mm. If any one can fill me in on if this is the right kit or not I would appreciate it.

Hey Stoney,
Well something seems awry alright... Here's the cometic website.
http://www.cometic.com/powersports.aspx
Fillin the blanks and there is no kit #415272 that I saw.
Now maybe that is a # the reseller used. I'll keep looking... This is a 2000 K-5 right?
The bore and stroke are "square" on a stocker 86mm x 86mm

All of Cometics "stock fit" gasket kits come with 2mm over head gaskets , so they will work with all of the standard and over bore wiseco piston kits that are available. The head gasket will work for you. CBX
