Why not try a Premium silicone head gasket Item Number : 3002SIL Year : 1909-1927 $26.95 plus shipping. That way if it doesn't blow and your tests are successful with it - potential buyer's like me will know that there is something that can be used until copper ones are resurrected.
The past is a great place and I don't want to erase it or to regret it, but I don't want to be its prisoner either.

Howd she run ......better than a Z or Prus?
Who's still makes these gaskets, I might be in the market for a solid copper one myself.

A few more Miller style sample heads will be cast soon for further testing with a dyno.
