o rings is when a groove is cut aaround your heads so theyll keep gaskets. mainly for s/c or turbo, nos, etc.

that little carb hat should come with your supercharger kit if you purchase a kit. otherwise you can probably get em from whoever you buy your spuer charger from, procharger, vortech, powerdyne, etc
