I went with Stage 8's and some copper gaskets. I got them at Thunderracing.com and Summit. Please don't put the OEM gasket on there.

Copper gaskets are good or you could go with Impy SS gaskets for a little more compression. But I also suggest staying away from the OEM gaskets.

i used the regular gaskets and stage 8 locking bolts. all i remeber is the mechanic kept bitching about how hard it is to put in the stage 8s and how they rattled on his vette, andhow the clips rattled loose on his vette. havent had any issues yet...
