I like the GM MLS. they are very forgiving. Make sure you clean the block surface well and get all that old graphite gasket off there.


Most stage 3 heads are are meant for larger bore motors so make sure they will work for your app... what heads you looking at??

We use the GM MLS for most builds on the stock motor. They provide enough seal for most of what people do on those motors.

GM MLS will be just find for your heads. You shouldn't have a problem.
