BEST Gasket is the leading name in sealing performance in the restoration industry. Image shown is an actual factory supplied picture.

Best copper cylinder head gaskets consist of two outer sheets of a generously thick .010" copper and a low-density graphite “filler” sheet. This high-quality graphite sheet is superior to asbestos, which was used in the old days, and far superior to the non-asbestos materials found in other manufacturers' modern copper head gaskets. Excellent torque retention is achieved by using superior materials. Best copper gaskets are definitely “old-school” but with a modern flair for better performance. They are such works of art, we almost hate to sell them!

 TECH NOTE: When installing a Best copper head gasket, use a spray-on sealant like K&W Copper Coat or Permatex Copper Spray-A-Gasket and always re-torque; no short-cuts.
