KB alum block What head gasket is everyone using PN if possible? Its not that easy with the info you gave. NA or power-adder, bore size, quench, desired compression. After you figure out the thickness you want you could call the guy in this link. I think he recommends .030 over bore size and you should have them in your hand in 4-7 days. http://www.4secondsflat.com/Cometic-MLS_Gaskets.html

KB alum block What head gasket is everyone using PN if possible? Um, how would we know? Wouldn't we need to know the bore size and if it is a Hemi or a wedge and maybe the compression ratio and some stuff like that?

We Always used solid copper. I have found Copper to be more forgiving in regards to the deck/surface finish and it can be reused if necessary. As stated above, you will need to know your cylinder bore and engine type, wedge or Hemi.

KB hemis move the steam holes out away from the bore. You can get cometic from KB and they may be an exclusive that you can't get direct from cometic. I would call Tim Banning or Ray Barton.

Cool. Mine was a custom. They must have come up with a production number The SPM in the PN# means Special Mopar & the 040 is the thickness. not sure of the other numbers in the PN number.
