Copper Head Gasket?

[Junster]

Anyone know of or have a link to a supplier with copper head gaskets for 80cc/8mm? The aluminum ones are ok I just would rather have a copper one.

I used the old one as a pattern and bought 3 dollars worth of copper sheet it was easy.

How did you get the small holes cut and the inside of the main cylinder hole smooth?

Yeah and its cheap there too

I used gasket punches for the small holes. For the cylinder hole i roughed it out with tin snips than ground it with a small stone in my dremel tool followed by a sanding drum. After it was completed I annealed the copper to get any work hardening out of it.
