what head gasket for milled heads?
what head gasket for milled heads? hey guys im fixing to get a set of absolute speed stg.2 heads with 64 cc chambers and have been milled .03, so i need some part numbers to a good set of head gasket that will fit the milled heads.
and my car is a 98 and the heads are off of a 99 so what parts do i need to get the heads on my car (valve covers...)? thanks in advance

What do you mean by fit???
What cam do you have installed? Will you be too close in terms of P to V contact?
You usually want to shoot for as close to a .035 - .040 quench as you can. Stock pistons are .007 out of the hole on average, so look for .042 gaskets. Even the .054 MLS gaskets arent too bad.
Keep in mind, the .030 mill, and however far you shrink your gasket, will increase the preload on your lifters. Not really a problem if you have a smaller base circle cam and 7.400 pushrods, but if you already had 7.425 pushrods, then you might need to get some smaller ones.
Anyway, we need more info!
