Same material, different gasket

I try to shop local at Calcutta Auto Parts, Calcutta Ohio. Worked there in high school, known the owner my whole life....... you asked!

Those are the ones. I don’t have many miles on mine. The friend of mine that turned me on to them had a 84 crew cab with a 440. Many trips to Florida and back, no leaks, no burnouts.

Oh by the way great job, looks killer

In my opinion Wyatt it is just a matter of time before the C-body manifolds being that close to the valve covers, that heat will burn out the gaskets. Fel-pro makes a heat shield gasket that is meant to protect the valve cover and the paint. It is not original and not pretty but fel-pro tooled...

Now I’m wondering what is on my factory +.020 over motor.?

I have them and have had on several motors.

Let me know when you want to get rid of that piece of junk.

Everyone's idea of Oomph! is just a little bit different. But it's been my expeience, big valve heads on a 318, unless you have a stiff rear gear, takes away Oomph. If you do not have to take the 318 .060 over Don't. You'll be better off .030 keeping the cylinder walls thicker and more rigid (...

A 65 cc SBM head will be closed chamber. Close chamber heads and dome pistons do not mix. Assuming you're @ .030 over, a zero deck flat top with 5cc valve reliefs, .039 head gasket with 4.04 gasket bore will put you at 9.46:1. What are your goals for this motor?
