Hey alright what I need to know is what size head gaskets do i need to buy..Im really confused on it because I know i should go with fel-pros, but when i look online at like jegs, or summit, they have them all dif. sizes and diamters and whatever for 5.0's..and i have no idea what matches. I have a 1990.. and im using thumper heads on a new 306 from DSS racing...so what EXACTLY do i need?
next question..do i need to buy or is it worth the money to buy a HIgh torque starter...whats the benefit from it...the mods im doing is dss short block, thumper heads, gt40 intake, e-cam, new lifters,frpp shorties,and various other small induction bolt ons and so on...msd igntion...i know they say the high torques are for high compression like 10 and over..but i dont think ill have that??? soo...whats the answer..
and the other question i have...cam lube..SHOULD i use the ford racing stuff or can i pick up some decent stuff at autozone..thanks guys
