Ok guys another question for ya. I'm installing a ported head and i don't know which head gasket to run. I'm looking for 600awhp, was looking at a cometic or the felpro permatorque. Block surface and head surface are good for either. I'm open to other suggestions as well.
 
Call MAPerformance, I just called them about a month ago asking the same question, even thought I have a cometic headgasket on my 2.4L with arp's. I was told that the best combo period, is to run the felpro permatorque with a set of L19's. However, every person has different success stories to share. I am sure that there are maybe more cost effective alternatives, as the felpro is very expensive. I run 20 psi currently and have run up to 27 psi using the cometic and arp's no problem, however that is well below the 600 hp mark :thumb:
 
I got the arp head studs installed on current setup so won't need buy those just interested in which gasket.
