Which headgasket for:

85 LB9 using ALUMINUM L98 heads?

I've spent the past hour running searches and have come up with the following possibilities:

Headgaskets 0.028 composition gasket,/ comp .041/felpro 1094 .015 steel shim head gasket, FelPro 1010

Thanks

Don't know about the headers, that's one of those deals where you just have to find ones that fit both your headers and your heads....

The 1204 intake gasket is probably a better choice than the 1205. But the 1205 should work.

well, the ports on an LT1 intake are the same height as a Fel-Pro 1205, i don't know how close a 1204 is.
