need a new head gasket and saw some copper ones. these are supposed to be re useable and stronger and resist blow outs. any ideas if these are any good?

hi,i did use them for a while till i changed engines,personal i never had any trouble,and found them ok, the only thing i did was when using a new one just warm it up with heat before you fit it.makes it seal better
