Someone told me that ordinary gasket paper would do. What do you think?
Not sure that âpaperâ would do the job. Most packs of assorted gasket material contain some fairly tough stuff that resembles that used in oem gasket sets. What ever you use it will be worth âfacing offâ the cylinder head on a surface plate to remove any imperfections or even any warping. That will give your new gasket a fair chance of sealing.
It occurs to me that there may be specific BMB information on a stationary engine forum or there may even be a specific user group on Facebook .
