Technical Head gasket manufacturer

Does anyone know of a distributor or manufacturer that makes a solid copper head gasket for the old GM brand straight 8's?

The only ones I can find are made by best gasket mfg and they're not copper. One side is copper only.

Egge, Kanter and Pontiac Parts all use the same one from best mfg which is not as the name implies. I have checked 3 and they all have different thicknesses.

Thanks

You'll have to create a CAD drawing of it and send to one of the companies that makes them. I have done this for several proprietary copper gaskets I have designed for some inline engines. Otherwise they will hit you with a design fee and drive the cost up considerably. Copper head gaskets can often require some "special" attention that composition gaskets don't need. Why are you needing copper?

 

send a gasket to clark gasket in Minnesota. they make solid copper gaskets.
