      you can buy, and i forget the name for them but there sapossed to help with detonation
      i think felpro sells them

      they are .020 thin pieces of copper that is meant to take the original gasket and sadwhiches inbetween the two copper peices
      your sapposed to use a copper adhesive spray with it

      that would give you 0.040 extra and its meant to work, unlike sandwhiching 2 gaskets which is a no no

      i dont know if you can get them for a 3.4 ?
      should work i think though

          Use the gaskets for the 3400. They are .060 compressed versus the .040 compressed I/H gaskets.

              QFT!

              Hence why I asked about the heads.
