    I am currently running 1011-2 gaskets there fel pros. They are known from what i hear now to hold cyl seal very well but are known to leak coolant exteranlly from the motor on occasion. I had mnor weeepage leak and i threw in bars crap and it sealed right up. Car ran mint the entire time. I was told to perhaps trya cosmetic gasket if nto i may go back to the 9333 HG. Ill also be looking in on this topic as Im interested myself.

    Another favorite is the 9333-PT1's. They work vey well without any coolant issues.

    Another vote for the 9333-pt1's here. Many blower guys that I know run these. I also have had good luck with them.

    I like the ROL gaskets. They held up to 23 pounds of boost on my motor.

    Ford designed by flaw one of the best engine hard part savers ever made, Not Enough Head Bolts. I run 15psi with ease using cheap gaskets but good head bolts. If something goes wrong you spend $20 on head gaskets and no pistons or rings to replace.
