which head gasket set to buy?
i found these two part numbers under different vehicles at autozone.com this part number was found under a 1979 chevy camaro 5.7L 4bbl part #HS7733PT-2 . And this part number was found under a 1983 Pontiac trans am 5.0L 4bbl ohv part #HS7733PT-2, the gasket set for the 79 camaro looks better and i think it comes with the severe duty head gasket and the one for the trans am doesnt look like it in the picture it seems to be a regular felpro gasket not the severe duty..... my setup is a 350 4bbl (700r4 tranny if anyones cares) all stock computer ran not manual. which set should i get. and should i get new head bolts? or just clean old ones. and since im this deep into the engine, any other ideas for adding some horse power before i close her up?

Funny how people ask a question at midnight, and expect a throng of answers within 3 hours.
HS7733PT2 is going to be the same kit, doesn't matter what vehicle it's for. A part number is a part number. They're the same kit.
Stock head bolts can be reused. Assuming its just do-over rebuild, they will be fine.
