hey everbody what is best head gasket to go with i got 50trim with 30 psi and going to spray 100 hp. noson it i got eagle rods and ross pistons arp head stud compresion piston are 8.5 any ideas :)
 
If you want to go all out like i did and never have to worry about a head gasket blowing, burning, or leaking:

O-ringed block with SS wire, SCE solid copper gasket, spray on high temp pure copper gasket sealant. ARP's are a must too.

O-ringing a block usually costs about $15-20 per cylinder and the gasket is about $60 so the cost comes in pretty cheap for what you get. The gasket is reusable several times. The guy at SCE i talked to said the solid copper gaskets are the same ones used in top fuel dragsters making 7000hp. If a copper gasket can withstand the extreme heat and pressure those engines make then it can take anything a DSM can throw at it.

I know the cometec gaskets are good too but you should use the ones that need the block O-ringed.
