WH854 44 #1 Posted April 8, 2013 Any one use copper head gaskets instead of OEM? I understand you don't have to change them for a new one every time you take the head off Chas Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Don1977 604 #2 Posted April 8, 2013 I have used them on 5 HP Briggs & Stratton engines. I don't see any problem using them, complete solid nothing to blow out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Callen 64 #3 Posted April 9, 2013 to use it over it needs cleaned spotless then heated cherry red all the way around to soften it back up. The head and block needs to be flat and smooth with no visible machine marks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The head and block needs to be flat and smooth with no visible machine marks. Thanks was just a thought Chas Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
