Blown Flathead

Hey guys, just 'bout ready to bolt down the heads on a S.co.t. blown flatead motor I'm building. Gonna use copper head gaskets, and was wondering if any of you guys have used these, and if you put them on "dry" or with some kind of "sealant". Thanks

 

silver paint.

Not so much silver left in "silver" paint I hear....

Hey thanks guys, I used silver paint on "steel shim" head gaskets years ago, worked great. Nice to hear it works with the copper too. I'll try and post a few pics soon. Thanks again

 

VHT Copper gasket cement spray is used in racing applications with copper head gaskets

 

Spray copper coat from auto store parts always worked for me.

 

I used the vht copper spray on my blown flathead, had no problems so far and its had a good thrashing at the drags. would love to see some pics.

 

I always used copper spay, with no problems.

 

I just recently started using copper spray and have had no prblems with it.
