5898 is the right number. It's good for something like 4.100 bore. Ya gotta love winter. Everyone getting ready for CORVETTE Season. Headgaskets, new tops, weatherstripping geesh, just about all of it.

So you don't need the exact bore correct? Mine is also .030 over and I just got the felpro 1074, I think it was a 4.1xx bore

That's correct. The Felpro 1074 is a 4.125" bore, .039" compressed thickness (~8.7cc). That's what I run as well, on a 4.030" bore.
