P.P head gaskets
P.P head gaskets ok guys just bought a pair of heads from them and they came with mls gaskets. Are these gaskets good, anybody had anyproblems with them. I also got a pair of cometics lying around so i wanted to know which pair of gaskets to go with. The heads are 59 cc heads, and the cometics look thinner than the P.P so i was kinda concern about the C.C. going up higher, so tell me if you guys had any problems with P.P mls.

yeah obviously not if they send you the heads and the gaskets...patriot uses the 6l heads and welds the chambers so you wouldn't run into the ls1 head casting problems

Are they GM or some generic MLS gaskets?
I like the GM gakets myself.

It should ideally be close to .040 for best combustion results (to do with propagation of flame upon ignition)

GM MLS is like .052 if I remember right
Do a search about quench, you'll see what I mean.
depending on how much you piston is out of the hole, you should choose the gasket with a thickness that will get you the closest to .040 quench.
