Message: [QUOTE="Mdub707, post: 135258, member: 107"] I will be doing my headgaskets in the very near future, and have done a LOT of reading and research on this. I will be using ARP's and OEM Ford headgaskets. I have found a local machine shop to go through the heads, and they do quite a bit of 6.0 heads, so I'm confident they can do a good job. The one area I always seem to get mixed answers or some answers that don't seem so solid is on block preparation. So what have you guys done or what would you recommend for prepping the block surface to do a headgasket job? Obviously the best option would be having the block itself decked, but honestly that just seems completely unrealistic for most of us DIY'ers. This also isn't going to be a 1000hp build here, I just want to keep my gaskets in tact running a tuner, maybe in the next year upgrade injector/turbo to something like a 175/190cc and a powermax. Nothing too crazy. So let's hear it... [/QUOTE]
