Hello, I have a 1964 gasoline D19 with a 262 that has had LPG pistons put in it in the past. I'm currently replacing a damaged piston and sleeve and was wondering that since these LPG pistons are higher compression, what head gasket would be best to use when putting it all back together? What brand and application? I've seen that the Diesel ones are thicker.
Thanks

Pretty sure Gas and LPG use the same head gasket. Piston pin location is the difference in compression ratio.
