[FC] head gkts

[Bruce Gwyther]

Ron,
     I personally would go with "0.042" thick (.032 is stock), especially AZ 
where it is hot. FC's run a little hotter anyway!  I only use copper 
anymore!  I've never heard of aluminum ones for a Corvair.
                          Bruce G.
                          Clinton, Utah
