My only regret is I wish these were around before my motor was built.
They hold great now with PRC stg. III truck heads. 22# numbers on c16 coming soon.

Edit: 317's

What I really want to know is how well they are holding with factory heads like 317, or 243's. I ran 20~22 psi on my normal MLS GM truck gaskets a few times with no problem but was afraid to go past that. The LS9 gasket has 4 embossed O rings in it's layers where the older truck gasket has 2. That being the case it should be able to flex/ lift more before it looses seal.

Forged LS3 here with LSA heads, ARP head studs, and LS9 head gaskets. Hope to make 1000whp on e85.

youll make 1000rwhp, under 20psi of boost with that setup. i did 988rwhp at 17psi through a th400 blowing through the converter.

I run them on a 180,000 mile LM7 5.3 with stock heads and have spiked to 30lbs of boost and ran 25lbs and haven't blown them. Currently have it turned down to 15lbs.

How much are you putting down on 30lbs? That's awesome man.

We use the reguler GM 5.7,6.2 and 7.0 gaskets with copper spray. No problems with them.

Mine is past 1000rwhp with the 7.0's. Held it under full load from 50-220mph no problem.
