Hi all
In the process of fitting new amc head.
Head gasket is 1 hole type.
Do I use the same new 1 hole type?
Cheers
 
If you've not touched the bottom end then same gasket thickness should be fine, but you should really measure the piston protrusion of each cylinder at TDC, the workshop manual will then tell you which gasket is most appropriate...

"From readings obtained, determine HIGHEST piston protrusion figure and select the appropriate cylinder head gasket:
Piston protrusion = 0.351 to 0.50 mm (0.014 to 0.02 in) - Select the 2 hole gasket.
Piston protrusion = 0.501 to 0.57 mm (0.021 to 0.022 in) - Select the 1 hole gasket.
Piston protrusion = 0.571 to 0.65 mm (0.022 to 0.025 in) - Select the 3 hole gasket."
