Get the Felpro 9333-PT1's. 23 dollars each from your local autoparts store. Stock bore is 4.00".

Unless you're running MAJOR power thru the motor, they will work just fine, FYI.

I think whats goin on is that the bore of your cylinder is 4.000. The 4.100you see there is refering to the bore of the gasket. I am almost positive that is the size you need for a stock bore engine.
