errrr norbie, yes, a metal head gasket does descriptively include 'copper' but im pretty sure when ppl talk about mhg's in general, they mean a multi layer steel or similar etc... not copper.

theres NO WAY i would run a copper head gasket without o-rining the block (or head). copper is soft, malleable (sp?), and theres absolutely nothing stopping a copper hg from blowing (unless its oringed).

options that i would consider OTHER than say a HKS mhg (which i too am waiting for from penrith toyota!) is a) a custom composite material gasket with individual steel fire rings installed - about $300 from an engine builder i know. and b) fel pro duraseal head gasket with a stainless steel compressable fire ring inbuilt (like o-rining) not sure on price.

dont just do a copper h/g!!!

cheers
