Paul,
Thanks for the information! I will go with the 'regular' gaskets for my
Eldo. I have to say, the Eldo motor is really a pleasure to work on.
Can't wait to get all my parts and start putting everything back
together.

That head gasket refers to the later motor like a T3. Their pushrods were moved further away from the cylinders to allow for larger displacements like the V1000. If you used the stock Eldorado head gasket on a T3, the pushrods would rub against the gasket and wear them down.
