6.0 head's on stock shortblock for boost...
Ok I have heard rumor's of the 6.0 head's not being able to run a stock 3.900 bore gasket..if this is true what gasket should i use?..it's a bone stock factory short block...also someone said something about welding/modifying the chamber to match the bore size??..is that needed or is that just you you can run a 3.900 gasket or to unshroud the chamber to produce better flow?...thank's,

I went with the GM MLS 6.0L head gasket on my 348 with 6.0 heads. You can get them from scoggin dickey for about 35 each if I remember right.
I wanted to go with cometics but after all the leak issue I have seen with them I didn't want to chance it.
But the cometics come in the 4" bore size too, they are are readily available if you want to stick with those.
