Anybody have a source for Magnum gaskets?

Tough to find; I recently bought a "conversion" gasket set that had everything but the top end, from eBay.

Someone had posted about a place that would make you a set but that's all I recall.

Cometic can make custom gaskets. Also gasketstogo.com can do custom MLS (multi layer steel) gaskets whereas Cometic will not do one offs or small batches of MLS gaskets.

I think I have magnum intake gaskets. I have not looked for a while. PM me with an offer and I will ee if I can find them. Bob

You can make head gaskets out of 16 gauge copper sheet. I do it all the time for antique engines. Gmc v6 used copper on the early motors. And it's all I use on the ones I redo.

http://www.gasketstogo.com custom makes gaskets in any material and and configuration. I have used them for VW diesel engines with great success (as well as loads of early vw diesel & rabbit/caddy pickup truck owners) & am also using them for some custom big bore Suzuki GS 4 cyl motorcycle multi-layer steel head gaskets.

On the MLS gaskets at least, there is a big price break when purchasing 5 or more gaskets, due to tooling/setup involved.

What tooling do you use and how do you cut the copper sheet?

Is that for a 305 or 351? I would assume that most everything crosses over between the two except the head gasket, correct?

[beerman]

the set was for 351s and 401s

All but the magnum top end gaskets should fit the 305
