G'day All!

I was wondering about the installation of a copper head gasket on my B20. I had to get one made to suit the B21 piston bore size so I had a copper one made. I was wondering if I needed to torque the head bolts any more (say 10lb) because it's a harder gasket material.

Just wondering.......
