I was  advised by an IECC member to use thicker head gaskets, just to make  
 
sure, if I wanted to run regular
gas.

The lack of choke  springs and such is a non-issue also because this is a  
'61  Lakewood. It actually has a
84HP engine (POS if there ever was one built  by GM) 


All very confusing, Tim.
So it really isn't really an 80 hp engine after all but an 84 hp one. And  
the heads you want to use are what? 80 hp heads or 95 hp heads?...both are  
1960's.
 
And are you planning to use thicker gaskets on 8CR heads or 9CR heads?  

Single valve springs or dual valve springs?
