What Gaskets to use
1. i use Fel pro 1008. have run up to 12 to 1 compression with no problems. .039 compressed. No sealer of any kind. Clean clean clean surfaces.
2. I like the Edelbrocks. .062 thick.
3. Ive used the Remflex set, but have gone back to the TTI gaskets. For manifolds, I have no clue. I guess the factory gaskets would be best there.
4. Depends on your power. I'm running studs, but also making very good power. Bolts may work for you.
Whatever you do here, make sure they're NEW.
I have studs everywhere you can put them, and it just makes me feel better. Here's a shot of Pinkie!
