Someone PLEASE tell me if they know where I can get a copper head gasket for my 420A? I am going to be installing my 80-shot nitrous kit and I would really like to upgrade to a copper head gasket. Thanks for your help everyone.
 
Go to the dealer and get the MLS ( multi layer steel ) gasket. Seems to be the best thing in my opinion, and you may wanna check to see if your car has one already. I bought mine from a Chrysler dealer, even tho I have a 95 Eclipse.
 
I have never used a copper gasket on a DSM but I have used them on a 302 ford and didn't have much luck. I used a O-ringed block with a receiver groove in the head and never had a problem with cumbustion leaks but boy did I have water leak problems. In a race car only situation they might be OK but I wouldn't use them on a street car. If you have a block and head that is not fresh ( perfectly flat ) I would not suggest even trying them. Just my opinion not a rule.
