Default Head gaskets

Hey everyone, I'm having a little difficulty picking a head gaskets for my lq4. It's bored .025" over with stock heads. I'm looking for an mls gasket, any help choosing a bore size would be appreciated as well as suggested manufacturers.

Youre likely looking at an ls3 head gasket. 4.085 bore x .051. we have them available for $57 for the set. Normally they are $60+

Make sure to measure the chamber. Sometimes the chamber width will determine the head gasket bore size, not the cylinder diameter. This is important so you don't have the gasket hanging in the combustion chamber.
