What is the best head gasket choice for a ford genesis engine? Going to be diesel and run a 3.6 smooth bore turbo. Will the MLS gasket out of the 8970 hold up with head studs? |

It holds up to a 3x3 inter-cooled just fine in SuperFarm.
I ran one without an inter-cooler a few years back with the stock head bolts. I have even reused them Andy Keyes Blue Bye U Blue Power Special Pulling Team |

Any suggestions for sealing the mismatched ports when using the MLS gasket on a 7.8 block with Genesis head?
Thanks! |

i run genesis head on a 401 block.....use a dab of rtv backed up by a strip of oring material, keeps the coolant out of the oil just fine |
