Hey i think i've seen your car out cruise'n woodward!!??? See'n how you're in walled lake, that's right next door to me!!

sorry lol....

yeah getting the gaskets from the new goats works too... but i get all my stuff below dealers cost...cha-ching!

 

yeah but dont several mls gaskets have diffrent bore sizes?

 

Let me restate that I have a 98 block and I bought ls2 heads. I also bought 6.0 MLS gaskets from gm. Everything works great. No leaks, no blocked coolant passages. Im sure you could get the gaskets in other sizes, but I was told to go with the 6.0 by many peeps on the board.

 

well i guess because i bought 6.0 317 heads for my turbo build,so i will need 6.0 gaskets. so i can go get a set of 05 gto gaskets?even though they are truck heads?

 

6.0 gaskets are 6.0 gaskets. You can ask for 02+ escalade head gaskets, 05+ goat head gaskets, etc. It doesn't matter, they are all the same.

 

thanks

 

Ok so to clarify, you buy gaskets for the CYLINDER HEAD you have not block. 98 heads will need 98 headgaskets.

SS4Matt, yeah I remember seeing your car too! I think I tried to race you, but you would go haha... I am always at hawthornes at 14 and WW and I go to autoeurope sometimes. We should meet up! Get ahold of me if you ever need a hand with the build.

 

Kind of. You want to match the gasket to the largest bore. If you have a 6.0 block with '98 heads you would want the 6.0 4.030 gaskets and not the '98 3.900 gaskets as they would be in the combustion area of the cylinder.
