[QUOTE="whenfoxforks-ruled, post: 1419180, member: 73147"] You better believe, my 83 CR480, has 2 head gaskets. A compression release would be nice$$$. The double copper head gaskets is a solid, jury rig. Oh, and it still runs blazing fast off bottom, and above. No issues with pinging, pump gas, and starts way easier! Some pinged from engine design, some from the pipe design/lack there of. Ignitions, are still poor, by pro drag racing standards, today. Back in the day, we were lucky they worked, at all. A missing dowel pin in the right place, can cause issues, and the head stays. Some of the old air boxes, just not quite big enough. And heaven forbid, some fool with tools has been at, in the last near 30 years or so? Just saying... [/QUOTE]
