The dealer can get and sell them separately.

Subject: Steel ring gasket source?

Hi guys,
I am looking for a source for the steel ring gasket that is sealing the
head with the cylinder  (I know, I can get it in a full set or a half
set).  I don't need the rest of the gaskets, only need these rings.
They seem to be of two parts, because when I clean them they sound like
they are shifting on each other, giving a light crackling sound.  I have
not taken one apart yet though.
I thought, maybe one of you would machine some of it and sell it to the
members.  If I had my shop now, I would have made some already.  They
look like, they were just pressed out of a plate of sheet metal.  I
would turn it on a lathe out of a seamless pipe, slicing them off one by
one.
Any of you have an idea?
Zoltan
