340 with edelbrock heads overheating
Edelbrock 340 aluminum heads are recommended to use their Edelbrock #7326 head gaskets with a compressed thickness of .050 ths.
The Felpro 1008 head gaskets have a compressed thickness of .039 ths.
That is .010 ths difference between the 2 head gasket brands bringing the valve to piston clearance .010 ths closer using the felpro 1008 head gaskets.
That along with a slightly higher lift cam > valves kiss the pistons?
