copper head gaskets

Anyone out there ever use copper head gaskets? If, so did they seal well? Did they require retorqing?

Thanks,

Jeff

Yes, I've used them and no they don't seal too well. Best to o-ring the block if your serious. I would stay away from them and use a composite type gasket. Just my opinion.
