Re: 235 head gasket options

I don't think the engine is picky as to what gasket you run but the copper gasket usually calls for some sort of gasket sealer applied to both sides of the gasket like KW Copper Coat while the Fellpro blue has it's own sealer built in. Unless I am building a race engine that flat requires a certain thickness gasket to meet a specified compression point I'll run Fellpro blue gaskets every time.
