victor does made some good stuff!!.. ive used thier graphite head gaskets alot on my motors... but if i were you .. a mls gasket would be a better choice. and it wont leave crap u have to scrape off for hours if u were to take your heads off again....
you will prolly have the heads off again... so why not spend the extra 50$ and get ARP bolts u can reuse????
