If you go to a #6 head it will be a bugger to start and have a short engine life. Copper gaskets can be hard to get a good seal .

George,
Beware of the reproduction heads - I understand those made in Europe are ok but the Indian parts look good but are porous & laminated castings. I have an extra OEM 5 rear head that has been milled .060 to clean it up. PM if you are interested. I was told by experienced HD mechanics that the aluminum heads used the asbestos fibre gaskets & the iron heads used the copper gaskets. It seems it is a heat transfer situation. I used NOS fibre gaskets with good success. Jack |

I'll check with my mechanic The copper gaskets won't crush down as much as the asbestos ones so it might match my front new head as it is not milled if I use a copper gasket at the back and a asbestos gasket at the front . It is easier to get a good seal with the asbestos gasket than the copper ,
