[TR] TR4A head gasket

[Wbeech@flash.net]

I used the Lucas gasket from BPNW on the TR4A motor in my TR3.  Aluminum head and some irregularities on the deck that needed filing, all is trouble-free so far.

Looks like my copper head gasket is leaking. Plan to return to the standard gasket.  
What is the consensus or opinions on who makes or supplies the best gasket?  Original
reason for the copper was to lower the compression.  After the last rebuild the compression was such that 
even using premium gas the car tended to diesel. The copper gasket  was difficult to seal. Took several attempts.
Worked well for perhaps 8000 miles. But ready to return to dieseling if necessary.  As always, Thanks, Arnold S Gilmour
