Default b16a fel-pro mls head gasket

so i pulling my b16a head off, taking the 3 weeks old cometic gasket off, and sending my head to resurface,

now i got a copper spray, and also high tach(how every u spell it) the red stuff decide to help seal coolant leak around head gasket.

becuz the first time i drop the cometic dry, and also didnt resurface the head, i want to make sure this time done right.

now i pick up a mls fel-pro gasket, and it said it have a rubber sticky layer some crap like that. i was wonder do i need to spray the copper??

i just want to make sure it seal this time compare the last time.

i cleaning my arp, and also the thread on block, hand resurface the deck. and machine resurface the head, so i pretty sure is going to seal. using molly tq to 70lbs on head stud. i think is going to be ok. any suggestion??

Default no

You don't need to spray anything on any good head gasket.

Get rid of the bandwagon copper spray. Worthless. Fel pro MLS gaskets are good quality gaskets.
