Re: 383 head gasket
You really should take your quench distance into account, that will help you make a decision on the head gasket thickness.

Re: 383 head gasket
If you do a search for "quench" lots of info will come up. Ideally you want approx. .040 or so between the bottom of your heads to the top of your pistons.
