Just to let you know SCE makes copper head gaskets for our cars. I ordered 1 along with a head oringing kit. Will have to see what the final price is, I should have it mid next week as they have to make it as its not a stock on shelf item but a built when ordered.

Cooper head gaskets are defently a good piece to install but they do have pros and cons to this.

Pros:
Basically you can have as much HP and BOOST as you want and the Copper gasket will seal TIGHT..

CONS:
They are NOT usually street friendly after a while .What i mean by this is that it might only last 5000K before it MIGHT start to leak.
Basically Copper head gaskets wear down very quickly ............
Also just by installing the Cooper Head gasket wont really do much UNLESS you O ring the head or block which is usually 8-10 thow.

I say use APR studs and Stock HEAD gasket and you should be fine for a STREET CAR..
If your building a race car just for track then Copper is the way to go fing02.gif
