    What type of wire are you guys using for stainless O-Ring wire in the head to help seal the combustion chamber? Where is a good place to buy? Thanks in advance.

    We have always used the .041" stainless wire that Clark Copper Head Gasket sells.

    Other places sell it too, I think Good Vibrations and RBS.

    Is anyone using continous loops (no splices), kind of like a fire ring on a diesel?

    thanks guys, .051 safety wire seems to be the general consensus from the people that I talked to.
