What's your compression ratio? How much nitrous are you going to be spraying? What kind of pistons do you have? Are you certain that your fuel system is up to the task.

Fill these questions in and we'll be able to paint you a better picture.

But....just off the top of my head, if you're running stock compression with forged pistons and plan on keeping it around 125-150, then the stock gaskets should be fine.

The stock gaskets will be fine, if you get greedy even a good gasket will blow.

The Cometics or any MLS style gasket (Fel-Pro also make them) are top notch but they are over $120 and are not really needed on a mild combo, overkill if you ask me.

I'll be using the Fel-Pro MLS gaskets on my new motor, but I am looking for 1000HP+.

My motor is a 306 with 10.1 compression, Ross pistons. The motor has a positive deck and Im spraying 100-150 shot on it. Fuel system is 190lph in tank, stock lines, AFPR, Stock rails and 24lb inj. Thanks for all the help guys. I was also steered toward Fel-Pro 1101-2's
