Default What kind of head gaskets for my 408?

I will be running 10:1 CR or 11:1 havent decided just yet with 200 shot of nitrous maybe even a 250 shot later on what kind of head gaskets should I go with? I don’t think the stockers are going to be good enough for my app.

I'd have to say Cometic. They'll make you a custom set to get you your desired CR and optimal cylinder "quench" which will result in max power.

Cometic hands down. Expensive yes but a good gasket. Follow yout TQ specs TO A "T". They are finnickey gaskets. Buy a little can of copper gasket spray too.
