Full Gasket Kit?

HurrycaneStang · November 20th, 2010, 04:35 PM

Hey guys, im kinda new to the whole 4v scene, in the process of dropping in a Mark VIII 4V, well anywho, I was wondering if anybody knows where I can find a gasket kit for the engine, preferrably Fel-Pro, thanks guys!

i dont know of a full fel pro kit, most guys use stock gaskets for everything but maybe heads.

I just finished a build, and was able to get a Fel Pro Head Kit from Autozone for about 250. That didnt include the oil pan gasket, or the intake gaskets. I also didnt use the Exhaust manifold gaskets that it came with. I bought a set of MLS Ford Racing gaskets for $60 from the ford dealership. You might be able to piece the kit together for cheaper than what i paid, but make sure you use Fel Pro MLS Head gaskets. I woould also recommend Stage 8 locking header bolts, so you wont ever blow your exhaust gasket due to the bolts backing off.

fel pro mls gaskets arent any better than the ford gaskets, and the ford gaskets are cheaper. i dont mind using the ford exhaust gaskets, but rather use other gaskets available.

MLS gaskets are the best period, they don't leak like other gaskets do, they are Great for forcefed cars and aren't really that expensive.
