Head gasket help

[Wanagofast]

So i'm currently trying to figure out head gaskets. I was debating on fel-pro, oem or cometic. I really don't know what to pick? I'm using it for a daily but want to run 300-350whp safely. What should i look for in thickness? What other things should i look for?

Oem composite HG and arp head studs and you can't go wrong bro! If your planning to run higher boost and want even more seal go mls and l19's! Just remember if you use a mls you need to have the block decked and head machined so both are perfectly flat, so the mls will seal properly! But I would run the oem composite Hg and arp's for your power goal!

+1 on the OEM HG and ARP studs. Your power goal isnt beyond the point that it needs an MLS and machine work, so an OEM gasket with some good arp clamping pressure should do you quite well.

Also, a buddy of mine had about 300 awhp on his 2g w/ a Felpro gasket and ARP studs.

I can personally vouch for the Felpro headgasket. 3000 hard miles of 25psi+ and no change when I do a leakdown test. I also have ARP headstuds.

Felpro and arps for me im sure it will hold my goals on this build for around 400, buddy of mine ran 400hp on his set up oem hg, and arps. After twenty years I never had a problem with that gasket. http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/newbie-forum/427812-composite-head-gasket-felpro-mitsu.html

Get a felpro composite and ARPs! Mine is holding 35psi, but I do have L19s...

Alright thanks guys! Are all stock head gaskets interchangeable between 6 bolt and 7 bolt?(Due to my 6 bolt block and 7 bolt head)?

Yes it's the same HG (part number is MD183808).

 

[BogusSVO]

Same part number for both from Felpro 9627PT
