Post by: Gray Brick on October 07, 2019, 02:15:47 AM
Almost ready to put my heads back on....

What does the Ecoboost crew recommend for head gaskets?

OEM works fine.  You might want to get ARP fasteners tho.

I ordered the ARP head stud kit PN 153-4303
Hopefully I can keep the heads from lifting this time. :)

I am surprised that Fel-Pro does not make a head gasket for this application.
