while my intake manifold is off and replacing those gaskets, should i go ahead and replace my head gaskets and add ARP headbolts?
im prepping everything for my turbo install and my stock motor has 80k miles on it

for any power adder application, i would def replace it with a higher performance one. felpro makes one that any local parts store can get, i think there like 60 bucks for both. but you might get different anwsers from others.

thanks, im going to get the Felpro 9333 head gaskets and ARP head bolts. i did a search on Corral and people recomended the 9333 HG's for boost.
heck i might as well, all i have to remove is the AC brackets...thats it, everything else is removed already...i also have a fresh set of E7 heads im going to use.

Had good luck with both the Fel Pro 9333 pt1's and the Ford Racing B51 graphite head gaslets.
My 89 LX vert has had the B51's on it for almost 3 years with 11-15psi with no trouble. Has ARP head bolts as well.

For the small amount of extra Labor, why not? Those gaskets will work. I would suggest using ARP Head Studs though.
