I found the Cometic gasket site...hidden in motorcycles in a search. Looks like they have a 4.540 bore gasket .040 thick which will work. Showing list price of $86 each. Ouch!

I've heard they are also reusable, but don't know from experience. Have heard that WJ uses and reuses them and he makes pretty good power. They even make them for my olds now at $150.00 so 65 sounds good. :(

Also if you use the "MLS" gasket, if I remember right they are held together with rivets, I would remove them because I'd hate to have one come loose and fall into the motor!..

I get 150.00 for them also. That is less than 5.00 over cost for me. I am trying to get (keep) my volumes up.
Custom thinknesses down to .036" compressed thickess.

Dont forget Cometic gaskets like a finer surface finish.

Clutch did great.
Had them on 6 top fuel funny cars.
Trying to get them on a few more and some dragsters.
Made a prototype flywheel and showed it around.
Will make one out of titanium and it will get tested in Phoenix.

That's some neat junk! Thanks Flat and Info! I now have more confidence in my two build ups. I'm am tired of finding the best gasket for the best price, I am not a parts man nor want to depend on one!
