Default for those looking for Impala head gaskets

I ordered a set for my car and I thought it would be helpful to post up the pic of them and the part number for others to use when ordering. I ordered mine through my local dealer but they can be had through sdpc2000.com for 29 bux a piece.

Heres the pics:
gasket in packaging:


part number on packaging ticket:


now there is only one gasket per package so order 2 when ordering.

stock f-body gasket is .049, b-body gasket is .029, signifigant quench improvement and around half a point of compression.

you guys are exactly right and i posted this to help others who were looking for the part number for these. I used it just for the gain in compression.
