Re: Head gaskets 351
$1000, really? Must be for dies, etc. to make a 'sandwich' gasket. I made an ACAD drawing of a Toro Flow head gasket and submitted it to a local shop for water jet cutting quotes. They can take the ACAD drawing and enter it in their cutting machine using CAD/CAM process to cut them out of soft copper sheets. The cost per gasket would be less than $90, less if they can stack cut them. The same could be done with virtually any head gasket. I would make sure the heads are flat and tie them down with ARP bolts. Nice thing is the copper gaskets would be re-usable!
