Fel-pro head gasket, need sealant?
I have a set of Fel-pro head gaskets (part# 8510PT) for my LG4, and need to know if I should use sealant on them. I don't think that I should, but could use a little reassurance. Also, does anyone have a favorite sealant for head bolts? Thanks.

No sealer of any kind is recommended on the head gasket.
In fact you want the block and head surfaces clean and free of any oil or grease. Brake cleaner spray works good for this.
