Felpro 1000 head gasket

[WIKEDV6]

Has anyone used Felpro 1000 head gasket on a Turbo Buick? We are slapping together a hot air motor. The gasket package does say it's for Buick V6 231,252, stage I and stage II. Bore size up to 4.020.

I am thinking it should be fine but please let me know what your thoughts are.

Thanks

I have used them for years. I think they are a great gasket. If you have any extra's I will be needing a set soon. . Took out a crank and piston if you were wondering why.

I hate those gaskets!
But the large 4.020 gasket on a 3.8 (or 3.830) bore isnt a good idea IMO. there are alot of guys using them but there have beed a lot of reported failures too. I thought they were way too fragile just from holding them in my hand. Id rather see you get Victor -Reinz stock head gaskets they are the OEM supplier for GM or go w/ Cometics.

Join the club! I broke my 3.8's crank in half, so the 4.1 is gonna have to make an appearance soon!

I am going to use the Fel-Pro 1000s also.
