FP 1011-2 headgasket. But I am not tmoss or thumper. Felpro 1250 is my guess for intake to head.

FP-1415 is the exhaust gasket

Don't use a 1415 for the lower intake... it's an exhaust gasket (a good one, though). For an intake set I've used the FMS kit a bunch of times and I've never had a problem (Summit #FMS-M-9439-A50).

Fel-Pro 1250's for the intake I believe. That's what I used... Here is a pick after pulled the lower off.

My Fault. I wasn't thinking. 1415 is the exhaust gasket and 1250 is the manifold to head. Thanks for correcting.

If Mike's intake runner opening in 1.10" wide or less, then you can also use the FelPro gasket kit MS93334.

1250 = 1.2"x2.0"

1262 = 1.28"x2.10"

Off the top of your head, do you know what size the Thumper ports are? The reason I ask is because I have Thumper heads and used 1250's, but it looks like I can trim the gasket a little bit more to make it match up. Just wondering if I should the 1262's instead? I have a ported typhoon for the lower. The picture above is mine. Thanks!

Sorry, didn't mean to hijack this thread...

The heads are 1250 felpro's with Mr gasket ultra seal header gasket on the exhaust. The Mr gasket is a little taller than the 1415. Cool??

they are "Mr. Gasket Ultra-Seal " you can get then at any auto zone, pep boys, and of course the Jegs , Summit, or PAW catalogs.. Jeg's number is 720-5834, Summit is MGR-5834 . cool?? I think the key here is Mr Gaskets number. 5834!! Have fun...

Mike,

The Mr. Gasket 5834's are the intake gaskets and not the header gaskets. Which intake gasket shoud I get for your heads, the 1250's or the MGR-5834's? I am confused now. I saw some MGR-5930's, but wasn't sure if those are the ones.

What header gaskets do you recommend? I am confusing myself? Anyone else?
