Looking for some good head gaskets, intake gasket, and timing cover gasket that will handle my 330rwhp build. Will a single roller timing chain and gears be sufficient for this build.

IMHO I have always used FelPro gaskets

I assume you or builder spec the head gasket thickness. FelPro, Victor-Reinz make various thickness. The "GM" Impala head gasket is .026

The FelPro "printo" line is the one for the intake gasket

TC gasket seal kit is around $12

If you are running the the stock water pump, this timing chain set is pretty good for the money.

Im doing the meziere hd ewp i decided. I think i will just stick with the stock replacement timing set you recommended though. I will only be making around 330rwhp so im sure it will be fine. Sounds like fel pro gaskets all around! Thanks.

Run the Cloyes dbl roller p/n 9-3145.

Felpro is what i use. If going with electric water pump get a cloyes timing set. Doesnt hurt to have a double roller, just grind down inside of timing cover with a flap disk or something like that. Mine took minor clearancing by crank seal

I didn't know gaskets were horsepower rated.

I was more so talking about hp with a single chain vs a double roller t bird.

No point. At the very most a true roller, but no reason for a double.

Yeah a single true roller sounds good. A double roller scares me. I have heard of ppl not clearancing the timing cover properly and having metal shavings from the double roller scraping it and ruining the motor yikes! I like plug and play because this is my first lt1 build. I dont want to F something up! I want to get rid of that water pump drive gear too! Ewp is going on.
