Title: Pulled the 4/6 apart last night. Are these original head gaskets
Post by: sxrsist on January 20, 2017, 08:12:30 AM
I'll try to add a pic but were they a rubber gasket and a copper sealing ring originally ? Also I do. Ogives pin locator on my. We pistons will run thought the I take port. Is this nothing to worry about ? Hate to get new cylinders on it and have it destroy a cylinder

I have never seen a set like that before.  If you are the guy wondering about 4/6 or Invader pistons for the same price, get the 4/6 pistons.  As for gasket sets JD used a separate copper ring like in your picture.  They seem to seal up a bit better.

4/6 piston are out there, but are getting harder to find. They also have a coating on them. If you need one PM me.

That is the factory head gasket for a 4/6.

Yup, factory 4/6 gaskets.  They are by far the best head gasket option for Invaders and 4/6s.  I won't run anything but these.
