What Head geasket for T34 yb?
What would be the recommended head gasket to use on a yb running T34.48, upto 30psi hopefully.

I used cometic on my 4x4 just to be safe. I ran 34lb all day long no issues. Think piece of mind not cost.

steel multi layer gaskets will require block and head faces to be perfect.

Sticky: Don't know yet head not off yet, nearly though. Gona swap the head for my old one i think. I get out my wibble ruler to see which is flatest
.
Block is staying in the car, so think i'll stick with GrpA and std bolts.
Matt: I'll give you a call Monday
