hi guys, just wondering which head gaskets are best to use when I bore my 1940 V8 block out to 3-3/16", I was worried about gasket overhang in the combustion chambers in the piston area with std bore gaskets ?
any comments please
cheers Robin

If it's a 24 stud engine, just use the standard 59A gaskets.
