I bought my old 93 Z28 back, now it needs some TLC

Which felpro? The common 1074 are 0.039 compressed if I remember correctly. Supposedly stock Impala gaskets are 0.029 and the Victor Reinz/Mr. Gaskets are 0.026, although I believe the VR gaskets are listed as stock replacement for an Impala so who really knows for sure. As of 2 years ago when I was buying parts for my one engine, the VR/Mr.G gaskets were the thinnest "normal" headgaskets on the market for an LT1.

Also, LS7 lifters can be purchased through summit or any GMPP dealer. If you go into the dealership to buy replacement lifters for an LT1, it's my understanding that the LS7 lifter is now the official replacement.

you can buy a set of ls7 lifters from a dealer for around $125 a set. When I got my trick flow heads they recommended the felpro 1074 gaskets.

Edit: $135 a set:

Ryan what lb injectors are you running?

I thought the comp ultra pro mags were self aligning?

[mcalus]

I got the comp pro mags.

Which happen to be sitting on the deck when I got home!

Right now I have the stockers in, but I have a set of 42lb/hr injectors to install when I get my dyno tune.

So that's the difference in the Ultra Pro Magnums and the Pro Magnums?

I think the Ultras must all be self aligning.
I cannot find anywhere where it says either way though.

Summit has SBC Ultra Pro Mags in both SA and NSA.

I'm guessing it's the last few that don't say self aligning.

[jderry]

Alright, good.
I'm glad mine are self aligning.

I got these ones.

Lloyd told me to go with nsa and use guide plates because of the rpms my cam would require, so that's what i did.
