Which head gasket to use?
 

Hey Guys,
Can anyone recommend which head gasket works well with standard Model A engines? Not high compression- and so many to choose from. I was going to just use a standard copper but wanted to ask first.

Thanks,
Jim

Thanks- copper it is then! I wonder, before I order from the big dogs, does anyone have a spare head gasket they'd like to sell for a few extra bucks?

Thanks,
Jim

Just make sure the fire ring is not overhanging on either the head or block. Both should be tested for flatness. .002" is the limit.
