Is there any special head gaskets you would use for aluminum heads?

This is 10.1 compression N/A 502, Edelbrock heads, around 500-525 hp.
Pistons are .005 in the hole.

Thanks Randy

I'd think the regular 1018 gasket would be more than adequate. Mine worked for 10.8:1 with TFS heads, studs, and a 150 shot.

Did a little more research on this and that is the gasket Edelbrock recommends for their heads.

Thanks for the replies

The typical Felpro will be fine

At 10:1 the frpp A441/1018 felpro should do a great job.
