Most of us use the MLS (multi-layer steel) head gasket. Its proven and works.


Gotta love winter

Currently I have a TTI racing emoji, but I would only use the MOPAR HG. I believe it is part # 1-050113627AA.

I got a cometic head gasket from slowboyracing, good for up to 30psi of boost. A little pricy $95.00. I was told I would never have to worry about blown head gasket with this one. For peace of mind the $95 wasn't a whole lot if it really works.

Using the MLS here, I think when it comes to things like gaskets, the OEM's are the best and surest fit.

No, it isn't enough over bore to make a difference.
