Copper gaskets
« on: November 21, 2007, 05:49:40 PM »
Anyone know where I can get some copper gaskets or copper to make them up?
Need them for the bambino head.

Any info would be great as winter is here and the garden shed awaits.

Thanks in advance

I would not advise in making a copper head gasket, they do not cost that much.
There is one on ebay at the moment

The head is a different shape, it is a bambino head used on the early export 126s.



I think making may be my only option unless there a company that makes to order. I also need to make up a couple of MMs as it has been skimmed.

Thanks will watch the one you pointed out although it looks a bit like a DIY job to me.

The offer of the LHD light is real. I visit Poland very often and can get them for that price. I have supplied many members with parts at cost, many parts I have sent free of charge. What exactly is your problem?

you have made 7 posts the 1st attacking me for having a silly avitar and mis-quoting me about the bis aircooled battle, the other posts were to sell your lights. I PMd you to ask the price and got no reply. I asked the price on the forum and was told 'not for all the money in the world'.
