you can get a MLS head gasket from satan. Should be fine. I just bought mine about a month ago. 50.00 and it seems fine to me.
Go buy the upper gasket set from satan. It has all the gaskets you need, including the head gasket. You should have gotten the bottom end gasket set w/ the Howell rebuild kit. That way you will have all new gaskets for the whole engine. Its always better to be safe than sorry.
