What could I get a local small engine shop that would have a similar gasket to a CY 4 bolt 29 CC engine?

Go to NAPA, buy a sheet of gasket paper, and make it. Its much cheaper. You can get alot of gaskets from one sheet, and even get better quality materials. Premade gasket kits are a waist of money imo.

Yes. I should have been more specific. I needed it right away b/f Saturday.

?sounds like making one is your best bet then. All you need is a sharp razorblade and you're in buisness. Get the paper with copper in it, very good stuff.

Go buy a tube of glue and don't worry about the gasket. You most likely don't need a gasket anyway

Not really that bad to come apart. don't need to use the whole tube, just a light coat.
I actually use one of these two for sealand now. Tube lasts forever. I like the form a gasket the best, but it needs time to cure.

I thought about that as well. If it works for vehicles, why not work for 1/5 scale engines.

I've was put on to anaerobic sealants years ago. Cant remember if it deutz, but one of the german engine builders used a sealant called hylamar to seal the head to the block. You placed steel fire rings in groves to seal combustion gases in and glued the rest of the head on. I've been using the loctite version ever since.
