Head Gasket set with .......
I need head gaskets for my 400 build. It is decked to .005. (verified )
The Fel Pro Q1016 head gasket is .039 compressed thickness The fel pro Q1018 Head gasket is .041 compressed thickness. Dont want to spend more than I need to for a head set. Question is ....: what fel pro complete engine set has these head gaskets in it? Heads are from a 1972 so proper intake set comes into play also. The gaskets are available seperate, but the whole kit will be a bit less expensive...I hope. |

Latech, I don't know if it is still this way, but quality gasket sets, incuding Fel Pro, used to have the numbers of all of the gaskets on the back of the package.

I prefer the kits with the 8518 head gasket. I've used dozens of them without a problem.
I've seen too many 1016's that don't seal the water passages. Maybe they've fixed that problem FINALLY, but I'll stick to the $65 gasket sets as long they keep working.
