Felpro or gm head gaskets

What head gaskets should I go with, Fel-pro or Gm? Any fel-pro gasket recommended more than the Gm? I am rebuilding the motor so I need all of them.

I used all GM in my stroker. I'm sure some have used Felpro with success, but I'd rather take my chances with the GM ones.

Im going with felpro for my stroker mainly for the gasket thickness I need to get my compression ratio right...I dont think you could really go wrong with either...

I like FelPro better, but have used GM gaskets (Impy) with no problems.

Felpro are better and stronger. If you're going to go GM get the Impalla gasket everyone talks about. Better quench and slllllightly better compression.

I had to make the same decision a while back. And the reason was that I had the heads off because the GM head gasket failed. I went with Felpro - cheaper and better. Easy choice.
