Only issue I noticed is that my old head gasket (Victor 1059c) doesn't quite align perfectly around the bore and might potentially overlap it slightly after even a modest overbore. Obviously this will cause interference if the piston top stands proud of the deck. I'll order a fel-pro gasket and see if that makes a difference.
I may also see about the possibility of ordering a custom gasket with a 0.040 thickness...what are the advantages/disadvantages of a solid copper gasket? I wouldn't think o-rings would be necessary with the relatively low (8.5:1 or so) compression ratio I'm aiming for...
