Im swapping out my head gaskets and Im having trouble getting it on the block with out damaging the gasket. I went to the 24hr Checker and asked for head/block alignment dowels and when they brought them up the were some kind of rubber seals. They didnt know what I was talking about. I thought guide dowels were a pretty common item but i guess I was wrong or they were just retarded. Im leaning towards the later. So now im wondering if any one has any ideas for some thing one might have around the garage or house that could pass as a guide dowel. There was a set of copper gaskets on the heads and was wondering if they are reusable? <--Dumb question? I went cheap and got Felpro and I think Im going to regret it with the amount of mods done to my car. Any one use the Copper Gasket in a can? I have some but am a little sketchy trying it. They only have to last a couple months or so till I can get my 351 buit and ready to drop in. If any one can awnser even one of my many Qs I would aprecciate it.
