What head gasket in LQ9 with 243(LS6)heads Hey, Ive searched the site for weeks and I havent found a clear, straight answer. I am installing an LQ9 with 243 heads. Do I use the LQ9 Head gasket or the LS1/LS6 Head gasket? Do I match the gasket to the Head or to the Block?

Always match to the bore size. In your case the LQ9 gasket.
You never want the HG hanging inside the bore, which could happen if you use the LS1/6 gasket.
