FAQ

1. What is the EC Copper Head Gasket made of?
The EC Copper Head Gasket is made from high-quality copper, designed to provide superior sealing, compression, and durability. Copper is an ideal material for high-performance and racing engines due to its excellent heat resistance and sealing properties.


2. What engine is the EC Copper Head Gasket compatible with?
The EC Copper Head Gasket is specifically designed for 72mm Tillotson Blocks. It is perfect for racing applications and high-performance engines using this block.


3. How does the EC Copper Head Gasket improve compression?
This gasket features a design that increases compression due to its more material in key areas, such as the pushrod and oil hole. The copper construction also improves the ability to withstand high combustion pressures, allowing for more efficient power output.


4. Do I need to use an O-ring with this gasket?
Yes, for optimal performance, it is recommended to pair this gasket with a stainless steel o-ring in the cylinder head or block. O-ringing creates a secondary sealing surface, preventing leaks and providing better performance under extreme pressures.


5. What is the thickness of the EC Copper Head Gasket?
The EC Copper Head Gasket has a thickness of 0.032 inches, which is ideal for high-compression engines and ensures a strong seal at high RPMs.


6. Does the EC Copper Head Gasket fit other engine models besides the 72mm Tillotson Block?

This gasket is custom-made to fit the 72mm Tillotson Block but can fit Wildcat 240 or other 72mm bore clone blocks. For engines with different specifications, please check compatibility before purchasing.


7. What is the bore diameter of this gasket?
The EC Copper Head Gasket has a bore diameter of 2.845 inches (72.26mm), perfectly suited for the 72mm Tillotson Blocks.


8. How do I install the EC Copper Head Gasket?
To install the EC Copper Head Gasket, ensure that the engine block and cylinder head are clean and free from any debris. For optimal sealing, it is recommended to use a stainless steel o-ring. The gasket should be placed between the cylinder head and block, and the head bolts should be torqued to the manufacturer’s specifications.


9. Can I use this gasket without o-ringing the block or head?
While it is possible to use the gasket without o-ringing, we highly recommend it for maximum sealing ability, especially for high-compression applications. O-ringing provides an extra layer of sealing to handle the extreme pressures in racing engines.
