427ci head gasket question... I am going to be replacing the head gaskets on my MTI 427ci motor.
The block is a ls1 Darton resleeved block, 4.125 bore.
My question is will these gaskets work with this block?
Cometic MLS Cylinder Head Gasket, LS1 Darton Sleeved Engine,
.040 thickness, 4.165 bore
I read on MTI's website that "custom" cosmetic gaskets are required.
Do I need a 4.130 bore gasket, or a different thickness?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,

Thank you guys!
I pray it is only a head gasket, and not a leaking sleeve!
We are running a coolant pressure test and a leak down test to hopefully clue us in.
