head gaskets?

[GTEATER]

I have this posted in general tech, but not getting any responses. I have Champion Iron heads cut for the reciever groove 1007's. Is this the only choice I have when replacing a blown gasket, or can the stock gasket be used?

Without milling out the rings, the Wirelocks are your only option without some other sort of machine work.

You could maybe have the block o-ringed and a steel wire put in it and use the o-rings in the heads as a receiver groove for the steel wire in the block and use copper gaskets. Lotta work but you'd explode something before you blew that setup if you installed it right.
