Im looking to replace my headgaskets and dont know what ones I should run. I am down to these choices :

Fel Pro 1007 Bore: 4.100 Compressed thickness: .039
Fel Pro 1000 Bore: 4.020 Comp Thickness: .039
Fel Pro 1026 Bore: 4.090 Comp Thickness: .039
Fel Pro 9441

Block is stock

Definately 9441PT's for your application. I torqued mine down to 75# in 3 steps and the Don't require retorqueing. I would also recommend ATR bolts.

I used 9441PT and torqued to 85 pounds. I didn't re-torque either. I think it messes up the thread sealant.

Bolt torque

I went 80# used moly lube. On head studs. In 5lb increments. Didn't retorque. But always raced when engine was at tomp. helped stopping popping head gaskets at the 1000 ft at the track.

What is the compressed thickness of a 9441?

I found this link TurboBuicks.com - Display Head Gaskets
hope I don't step on toes.

I was wondering how the fel-pro 1007's with the lock ring affects compression ratios?

Rock Auto shows Felpro 9441PT for $29.79 and Felpro 9441B for turbo vin code 7 ($38.79). Should I buy the 9441B?
