Chamber was designed to flow around the valve, so just in case, lay the gasket over the head to make sure the fire ring lays on the milled surface, not overlapping into the chamber,

i had to get some expensive fel pro gaskets that cleared the chamber. it was shaped to clear and was recommended by RHS.

I called RHS and the guy I talked to said he didn't know of any special gasket needed for the heads. Are you pretty certain?

Got the cam out!! I may be wrong, but does it say Lunati on the cam? I can't believe I'm actually the rebuild myself, best experience ever. Here's some pics, maybe you guys can tell me what can it is, and what type of piston is in the truck as well
