I'm in need of a full gasket set, and I would also like to replace all the bolts with the ARP ones... as they look real good


What do you recommend?

 

fel pro gaskets

 

Hmm, since I'm also a turbo Dodge guy, I'm very affraid of Fel-Pro... as they suck for Dodges!

No one has had bad experiences with them on a SBC?

 

you can pick up a fel pro kit at auto zone for $80

 

You can't blame the gaskets for that though.

I pretty much only use Fel Pro for everything.

 

I'll vouch for Fel-Pro as well. Have always has good luck with them.

As far as fasteners go, you really can't go wrong with ARP...might want to look into something like this.

 

Ok, that's exactly what I was looking for. Is that kit totally complete, or am I going to need other things? Looks like it's all there, but I'm no good at this sorta thing lol

Is there a similar idea for a gasket set? The whole thing at once?

 

It may sound like a no-brainer...but if you get the ARP bolts, be sure to get the stainless ones.

 

Yes, check out THIS kit from Fel-Pro.

 

Would I benefit from a more expensive brand? Trick flow makes a gasket set and costs $130! What's the difference?

BTW, not sure if I would need different gaskets/bolts due to my setup, but this is it:

1969 350
Trick Flow Twisted Wedge heads
Holley Stealth Ram

 

I bought fel pro but in my kit they included 3 head gaskets and a egr gasket that didnt fit. I mean i though the v8 only had 2 heads.

 

Haven't you heard of the W head engines?

 

Wait, so the Fel-pro kit won't have what I need?

 

Get the right Fel-pro kit for your application and it should have everything you need.

Actually, now that I look, you've got modifications, so it's not likely you're going to find a complete kit from any manufacturer that has exactly the right parts for your combination. You'll probably have to piece one together yourself out of individual gasket sets.

 

Yes they have what you need but sometimes they screw up. I would choose them again because i know i can trust a feel pro gasket.
