correct head gaskets

Because I am only around 300 hp, can anyone direct me to the correct head gasket on my 1st gen.350,bored 60 over. I just sent the stock cast iron heads(with stiffer dual springs for the cam I put in it) off for valve seals and anything else they need and I need to know which head gaskets I need for reassembly. Thanks.

Re: correct head gaskets

Buy the full gasket set KS2600 (68-79) for less than $50. It has the head, valve cover, intake, thermostat gasket which you will need plus other you may not need (for now)

Re: correct head gaskets

oramac91, You're posting on a completely unrelated subject. How do you expect to get the help you seek for your drivability issue on a thread titled: "correct head gaskets"?

Start your own thread. In the meantime, when you installed the headers, what did you do with the O2 sensor and its wiring. If the O2 sensor circuit is grounded. Your car will run very rich.
