The part number I gave ya will work fine. the gasket bore is 4.115"
.039" - HG32841HR this one is there "race" head gasket its just easior to clean up and do at the track if ya need to.
.045" - HG32841HT
I've used both and for the price ya can't beat them.

be aware of all mls /cometics gaskets they need a very smotoh head and block surface to seal well ...lotta leak issues on retro fits .
the machine surface was left rough to bite a composite gasket .
you will also need to spray em with some type of sealant as insurance!!
