Head gasket bore is 3.295". We offer "big bore" head gaskets for large overbored blocks. This gasket set is for late-design flathead V-8 engines which have the distributor mounted at a perpendicular angle to the camshaft; compared to early-design where the distributor is driven directly off the forward end of the camshaft.
BEST Gasket is the leading name in sealing performance in the restoration industry.
