    what size cometic head gaskets?

    just looked on JEGS..Cometic only sells head gaskets for bore of 3.840 and 3.860 or larger. my bore is 3.8305. is the 3.840 what I need? so if you have stock bore.. do you still use the 3.840 bc that's the smallest they offer? just curious to why nothing with a smaller bore is offered
