Heads are not o-ringed. Blower car with TFS High Ports. What head gasket would you use?

1011-2's are POS paper gaskets.
9333-PT2's will work just fine & are on cars running in the 8's.
Otherwise go for an MLS gasket. I've run both the Cometic & Felpro MLS's with great success. Never blown one of them.

I was thinking about cutting out 4 layers of cerial box (peanut butter Cap'n Cruch), cutting out a head design, throw em on with the heads and torque em down to 135 ft lbs..... but that's just me. ![[Big Grin]](biggrin.gif)

You laugh but ask blown67 about the wonders of a pepsi carton ![[Wink]](wink.gif)
Yeah those felpro's 1011's garbage I use as what 93 pony said MLS felpros and I try to stay away from cometics unless the motor combo is really worth it. My take at most your car is only what a 347 with s trim I'd go for the cheaper mls felpros. I think for my last ones I paid like $30 a piece.

A 9333-PT1 is a MLS gasket.
I dunno about you, but I like the thought of flattening the wire in the 1011's vs. a pre-flattened one like the PT1's and PT2's. All about preference I suppose!

what is the difference between the FEL-9333PT-1 and FEL-9333PT-2? I can only find the first on summit. Is it the number of gaskets?

There isn't a 9333PT2...it's a 8548PT2. One has a steel firing ring, the other is a tin firing ring.

Yep, my mistake. It's 9333PT1 & 8548PT2. Both are graphite & are reasonably priced. Racers have used the 9333's with upwards of 25PSI boost.
