Head Gasket Suggestions

I understand Mr. Gasket makes head gaskets that are .028" compressed. They are a good gasket & seal well with no problems, just make sure your head & block surfaces are CLEAN, & check the piston to valve clearance before installing any head gasket. You want to bring up the compression on that 84 block 'cause it's probably in the 8-8 1/2 range, (maybe lower, it's a smog motor) & thinner gaskets will bring it up to where you need it. Check out Magnumswap.com for the part number & more info on the gaskets. They are usually sold individually, not in a set, but the price should be very reasonable too. I plan on using them on my Dakota. Fel-Pro makes real good gaskets, but don't have the thinner ones that you want, but get their exhaust gaskets for you headers. you don't want cheap header gaskets, trust me!
