HS7733-PTx (whatever x they're up to now, last time I bought one and paid any attention to it, it was a 9, probably a much higher # now)

You'll probably want to get intake gaskets separately; use whatever AFR says is the correct fit to those heads. Probably 1204 or 1205.

In addition to the suggestion above, consider using the Fel-Pro 1 piece pan gasket.

Cometics makes excellent gaskets, but they're pricey.

Good Luck

Cometic would be my choice as well. We use them extensively.

Re: Help on Engine gasket set

Kits are convenient only if you have a stock build. In addition to buying intake gaskets separate, you should buy the head gaskets separate as well. Your piston to valve clearance, quench, compression ratio, cylinder bore, and aluminum cylinder heads will dictate your head gasket choice.
