If so which is better?

Hey glamis,
I read your other post on the blown gasket deal with the copper gasket sealant. Anyways as for gaskets, the best gasket on the market is the one Duncan racing carries. It is a stock honda steel gasket made for the larger overbore pistons. Call them up to see if they have it in your piston size it is rather epensive but is the best like $30. No other gasket compares to it. I run that gasket with my 89.25mm piston, and when I picked it up from Duncan, Lenny Duncan told me to put gasket sealer on it, but just a super thin layer, too much and you will have your problem. I put the same copper sealer on mine and have no problems. I am still running the stock studs with 12.5:1 compression with no probs at all. Let me know if you need help.
