<div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false">My data is a little dated, but when I was racing my TR-4 I always used the steel competition head gasket, which was supplied by the factory as part of the decompression kit for cars destined for Europe, which did not have the required octane in their fuel. I used a regional product called "Gaska-Cinch", which was recommended by an old racer/friend from the St, Louis area. I started using it in about 1980, and for the next 17 years, never had a failure.</div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false"><br></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false">More recently, I rebuilt the engine in my TR-3 (street car). and used a head gasket by Cometic. They normally make head gaskets for stock cars and drag racers, so I was surprised that they would make one for a TR-3/4. They might also make one for a TR-6. It is a steel, multi-layer gasket, but it has worked fine. Going on about 5 years now on a 10.5"1 compression TR-3/4 engine.</div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false"><br></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false">For what it's worth, that's my experience.</div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false"><br></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false">Jack<br></div><div><br></div>

Any head gasket suggestions for gt6 12:1 motor. Have had chronic oil leak at pushrod side of head. Had same problem with two different heads before this one as well. With a different block. Current Block is zero deck height and head is cut to achieve the 12:1. <div>Just wondering what others might be using for head gasket?</div><div>Thanks, </div><div>Brian<br><br><br><a href="https://overview.mail.yahoo.com/?.src=iOS" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Sent from Yahoo Mail for iPhone</a><br></div>
