What is the stock size head gasket?

figure out. I was looking at all
the different companies they have
for a gasket.Which is better and most reliable?
sorry for asking the questions on your post.
A lot of people are happy with cometic for around 99 or so.includung myself
i think stock is around 1mm(.040").

Thank you, kind sir. :cool:
If I dont plan on building my motor this year is it pointless to just do a headgasket and headstuds? My motor has only 38k on it. I am looking to be 330 to 360 whp. Thanks Joe.

Depends on how much boost you are going to run. IIRC, the stock head gasket goes at about 23 psi.
