Copper gasket
Can I just buy a thick sheet of copper maybe 1/8" and cut holes in it and use it as my CSC 3-hole gasket? The Mr. Gasket composite gasket sheet is useless as the lack of fire rings around the holes mean that it will blow through in no time.
Re: Copper gasket
Most people don't use gaskets to join top/bottom of CSC nor are they meant to. Both surfaces should be perfectly flat, if not, sand them down until they are -use sandpaper wrapped around a flat block of wood and you'll do a great job. If you insist, you can use a dab of exhaust paste, the kind that hardens rock-hard with heat.
On my 24v ss headers no gaskets, no goo and they seal great without leaks.
