Bought a complete built LS3 for a customers car. Here are the specs. Was told from the seller the last owner put the long block together in his garage but the Bottom end built professionally. Not that I don't trust anyone but when doing a customers cars I want things to always be right. Going to pull the heads and have a machine shop inspect everything. Going for close to 900-1000 HP on this build. Did a quick search on the forums but came up blank. Can someone who knows just shoot me a good head gasket to run. I have heard some feedback on the cometics. Just want to hear a little more before I order some.

This engine is no where near stock and is going to be quite a bit past "Mildly Modified" pushing 20+ lbs of boost. Have you used these on your Turbo engine with no problems.
