Summit has all the gaskets you could need. Depending on what kind of compression ratio you're looking for will depict what thickness gasket you get. Stock is .049 I believe. The felpro 1074's are .039. Impala gaskets are .028. Alot of guys use the Mr. Gasket 5716's and they are .026. That's what I use to help get the compression ratio up.

I have a brand new set of cometic .027 with a .040 bore for an LT1 that I am selling $120 shipped and they are yours. I am using the same set on my 383 but the machine shop ordered 2 of the same gaskets so I have an extra set.
