I dont suggest reusing a MLS gasket...if you are refering to me reuseing my "gaskets to go" MLS gasket the only reason I reused it was becauase it had like 40 miles on it since new and NEVER got full crush to seal...dont buy one with the intention of reusing it.as for full copper gasket I read up on it and even found a member on here who tried one and poped it in the low to mid 20 psi range IIRC(andy's build)I dont think a full copper gasket will last very long..they are meant to be ran with SS fire rings from what I heard...
They might give you a better deal if you deliver the CAD to them. Here it is in DXF:Mechanical Headgasket DXFAndrew

So I just got off the phone with Cometic, seeing what the charge would be to have an MLS gasket made.The price for tooling is going to be the issue. The price is $3000. As of right now I don't think this is going to be an option, unless we could get a ton of folks that want some gaskets.

If we could bring them down in the $100 each range I'd be up to buy one.If we could get them down into the $50-60 range I'd buy two. Maybe even three.
