I might have one, would now be a good time to upgrade to a copper gasket?

Thank you Hoser, I'd like to install my Speedchaser Cool Head and didnt really know which head gasket I should look for. I was curious if anyone had a Honda gasket they would be willing to part with. I have seen the copper gaskets on ebay but was unsure on the correct thickness I should look for, & don't really want to give up any gains in compression I might get from the cool head. Any and all advice on this would really be appreciated.

Thanks again,
Nick

I buy the Wiseco top end gasket sets, usually you need some if not all of the gaskets it includes at some point you know? Thing is like 34 bucks or something like that off their webpage.I got 1 pretty cheap off Ebay as well recently and just used the head gasket in it.
