Hey folks,
has anyone heard of kinetic head gaskets? Someone told me they were indestructable.
Also, what is the proper size for an un-bored (stock) 87 shortblock? I am replacing my heads with thumper E7's (and also a TMoss upper/lower and Jay Allen cam )
I don't want to skimp on gaskets and I don't want to have the car apart and have the wrong gaskets
Thanks!

Never heard of kinetic (try a google search) but I have heard very good things about Cometic Gaskets

Fel-Pro also has a MLS gasket out that is very nice, a hair cheaper as well...
If you go Cometic, make sure you coat them before the first ues or they tend to seap between the layers. One reason I switched over the the Fel-Pro, they come pre-coated.
Stock bore is 4.00" so you'll use a gasket that is 4.08-4.10"

on the Summit site I found the above MLS gasket...did I get the size right? It is specified for Marine applications; what does this mean and is this ok?
Thanks!
