Macs says use a Model B gasket on a Model A block. I've lined up one of my used copper Felpro Model A head gaskets and why wouldn't that be a good one? Two holes at the top seemed to line up 90%, not 100%.

Anyone know for sure what is the best one for the Thomas head?

Looks like someone before me ran the head without a corrosion coupon. I had to get a couple places welded and the whole head planed. Now the only corrosion left is where there are holes in the head gasket. Got is for about 1/2 price of a new one.
