Default the use of O-rings with stock headgasket??

can it be done? should it be done when you want a good tight seal?

Im assuming that you already have the block sleeved and your asking where to get he copper wire, right? If it is jsut go to a speed shop that deals with older musclecars and they will know exactly what you are talking about. They will probably have it in stock.

U need to put a groove in the block or the head to use o-rings. The groove holds the o-ring in place
