I am building a motor and it is bored .30 over and I need head gaskets for it. So what would be the size of the head gasket? I know stock is like 4.000 or 4.100. Correct me if I am wrong. I just want to be sure to buy the right gasket because they are expensive.

Thanks,
Dave

I believe the head gasket will have a 4.100 bore opening. Just get a standard Felpro head gasket from the local autoparts store.

They are built in with a .100 "overbore" on the gaskets...
