help me select a proper head gasket

[71swing]

My setup is a stock short block with arp studs, and trickflow intake.

I will also be installing a turbo kit this winter, would like to run about 8lbs boost.

All my how to books recommend felpro graphite gaskets, so I ordered a set of the graphite 1152

But I see most people talk about using felpro's 1011-2 & 9333pt-1

9333pt-1 link:

which one is best for a turbo setup?

Can anyone tell me what they mean by lock wire, I see the 1152 I oredered doesn't have it, nore does the 9333pt-1, But the 1011-2 does have the lock wire.

I would get the heads loc-wired, if you're going to a boosted application. Do it right the first time. The Ford heads aren't held down very well. 10 bolts to a Chevys 15. In a boosted app the heads have been known to literally lift up under pressure, leading to blown head gaskets. The loc-wire gasket uses a wire ring in the gasket to help seal the head to the block. A groove must be cut into the heads to accept this wire. Well worth it. Mine was done 10 years ago.

SO what you telling me lock-wire means O-ringed.

Why two different names for the same thing.

Than I think I will stick with the with the 1152 graphite gaskets without the lock-wire that I have on order for now.

Because my block is not o-ringed, and I have plans on buying a 306 shortblock next winter. I will get the 306 o-ringed at the time of purchase.
