      I got my gaskets in a KIt . It included all the gaskets for the motor . It was given to me from an old hot rodder . You need a set I will make a phone call and get you a link ?

      ​@@CustomClassics77 I bought a kit last year that was made by a company called Best Gasket. The head gaskets in the kit were a newer style of material that was more rubbery and had a thin film of metal. Turns out, those gasket are actually plugging up the hole that lets oil feed up from the camshaft to the rocker assemblies (doh!). Luckily, I caught the problem relatively early. The head gaskets that I put on about 20 years ago were made of all metal that appears to be stainless steel (just as the ones you have look). They have the brand name "Fitzgerald" stamped on them, part # 0720. The important part is that "hot dog" shaped cutout above the two middle cylinders. I watched your video to see if yours had those cutouts and they do. So, I am trying to find the original OEM style gaskets that are the stainless steel. The ones in the Fusick link you sent appear to be the newer gummy style. Are the ones in your video from Fusick?

      Sorry, I see you already said the kit was given to you by an old hot rodder. Seems like the old style all steel gaskets are getting harder to find.
