Default 806 heads on a 6.0

806 heads 1998 LS1.

Anyone know if the notch in these heads will cause a sealing problems with the 6.0 GM MLS gasket? This is all on a 2002 6.0.

Yes, it will. You need to run the graphite gaskets to get them to seal. Regardless, those heads are gonna shroud the cylinder. I hope this is just an "in the meantime to get it running until I get suitable heads for this app" type of thing.
