Lets talk head gaskets

<< < (3/3)

Fel Pro MLS are every bit as good as Cometic IMO  Cometic is the go to for different thickness and bore sizes--FelPro does not have as many choices is the only deal--price is about the same everywhere on either
You should Note;
The MLS gaskets have "tabs" sticking out at different places where they are rivited together--these can interfere with intakes, headers and everything else so don't be surprised--we bend them down if they are in the way after head  is on--I would NOT drill the rivets out for any reason--seems like lots of folks think that is an answer but NO!- don't do it
Overall MLS is first choice as long as surface prep is correct RA--Copper for blown but always with block or head o-ringed---a reviever groove is optional and usually not used as it is past the average shops skill or experience level to do it unless they are used to it--I always just o ring block deck and get on with it.
