Hello, I am doing a top end strip down and overhaul on my 87 V8 EFI, detailled in another thread.
My car had no exhaust manifold to cylinder head gaskets fitted and the rebuild gasket set contains 8 fibre/aluminium type gaskets.
Should I or should I not rebuild using the gaskets?

As always, thanks in advance for the input.

I should know this one but my buddy did all that work before I got there.
I will ask him what he did and try to post later.

I would guess you do need them.

Check out RPi's website for for more info on cyl heads and manifolds.

Good luck.
