Default Which head gasket for stock LS1 w/317 heads?

I have a stock 5.7 Liter LS1 block that I'm going to put 6.0L 317 heads on. Which bore head gasket do I use? The one for the 5.7 or the 6.0?

Harlan,

Do you know if the 6.0L gasket will work with the 6.0L head on a 5.3L?

They should. AFAIK all the coolant passages in the block are in the same location. So match the gasket to the larger bore (head vs block) and you'll be golden.

Thanks!

Did you ever get my PM about doing an ignition interupt option on your new 2-step?
