Head Gasket on 76mm Tillotson

Running the attached head gasket on my 76mm bore tillotson block. Running it with a predator head.

For some unknown reason this gasket doesn’t have the additional drain port cut out on the gasket. We punched it out on the initial build.

Broke a 26lb exhaust spring so had to tear it down. Re assembled everything, new head gasket and we did not punch that hole out on this one.

So before I raced we figured we should pull the head back off and punch out the hole.

Is anyone else running this gasket on their 76mm block? Have you always punched the hole out?

If it get too much oil up there , it should go down the pushrod slot.
Even just a 1/8th hole for a drain should work .
