That head gasket refers to the later motor like a T3. Their pushrods were
moved further away from the cylinders to allow for larger displacements like
the V1000. If you used the stock Eldorado head gasket on a T3, the pushrods
would rub against the gasket and wear them down.

Do I need to use the 'new type' gasket for cylinders using oval push rod
tubes, for these cylinders? When I pulled the cylinders apart they had
the regular head gaskets with the round pushrod holes..
