You guys know more about the realm of quench and DCR. Im pushing coolant so it's time for head gaskets and studs. I need help determining thickness so I have no PTV clearance issues.
my setup includes: State 2 ported heads (65cc's I believe), 2.02/1.60 valves. The heads are 98 heads that have been notch filled and have been ever so slightly milled just for clean up. My cam is a TSP Torquer 2 (232/234 .595/.598 on a 113 LSA). When I remove the heads Ill be having them checked and cleaned up slightly for trueness, so hopefully not much milling at all. Currently I run 5.7 MLS gaskets, and will hope to stick with the same. I dont want to run Cometics, too $ for me right now. Would I be safe after milling to still run the 5.7 MLS gaskets? I dont want to flycut. Thanks for the help.

Predator Z? i know you had this cam. anyone?

 

stock ones. i had cometics and they leaked when i sprayed it. swapped to stockers and no issues.

 

did you use the 6.0 gaskets or the 5.7's? the 6.0's are a little smaller and still work fine with bore size. I've used them before, before i sprayed. I just dont want to be close after the heads are resurfaced slightly.

 

i used the standard ls1 mls gaskets.

 

I have a pair of felpro MLS head gaskets that are new. Ill sell them to you for $100 shiped. part number 1161. Pm me if your interested.

 

I'd just get stock gm ones from tsp. Cometic .40 would probably work also.
