Default head gaskets with a blower

Whats up fellas im needing some help on the right head gaskets for a supercharged 302? Ive been looking at the head gaskets with the locwire combustion ring , but i dont know if ill have to machine my aluminum heads to use them or not? Im only going to be pushing 8 0r 9 pounds of boost. Wheel these gaskets work without machining if not are their any suggestions on some good ones to use, maybee copper! Thanks

Just get some quality FelPro gaskets and a Professional tune. Plus make sure you have at least 42lb injectors, 255lph inline fuel pump and a T-Rex external fuel pump. Should be fne with no blown headgaskets

to use a loc-wire head gasket ..heads must have the groove/o-ring machined into them
