Default 5.4 3v Head Gaskets

Just trying to gauge a price so I know what I need to come up with fundage wise.

5.4L 2v Iron block, with 3v Headswap. I'm told to the 3v head gaskets are what I want.

What would you reccomend ? Motor will be boosted, 16-20 PSI

It's a copper gasket with a fine steel wire that acts like an o-ring. There's a guy on another board that's lifted his heads a handful of times with too much detonation and those gaskets have always re-sealed for him. He's running 25lbs but was at like 18-20 or so IIRC.

Summit has these guys, but the smallest they list is a 3.625 bore - I have a 3.572 bore. #SCE-S46624

the standard HG bore is 3.6... check with your assembler but I'm pretty sure the extra should be cool. They say they're for that specific motor and summit's been pretty good with me. I'd pick it up but call them to make sure you get the right one.
