head gasket- brand, type, thickness, etc.?
I have a 350 l98 block (stroked/bored to 388) with the following:
flat top pistons w/ 2 valve pockets, block is not zero decked but has had a little taken off the clean the surface up (not sure how much right now- i am at work), 64cc dart pro1's 2.02/1.60 200cc, and a cc306 cam.
just curious if you all could tell me which head gasket i should get- brand, type, and thickness. i am looking for somewhere around 10.5:1 possibly a little higher- depending on how much you think the cam will bleed off. most likely no nitrous- if so- no more than a 75 shot on very rare occasions.

Find out how far down in the holes the pistons are. Pick your head gasket based on that.
