they are different as you can in these pictures, the 305 may work but not right and may cause Intake leak luckily my old gaskets may still be usable

Re: V6 Magnum Gaskets
this is my 351E which is the same as the 351M and 401M with the larger ports on both the manifold and head, someone put a 305 small port intake this engine at one time if look close at my pictures you can see it was sealed correctly

I looked them up, but they have nothing in their catalog for 1960+ GMC truck specific engines. They can hand cut custom gaskets, but only paper/felt/etc, no head gaskets or anything with rolled metal sealing areas. I have had some good luck with http://www.gasketstogo.com on Custom Suzuki 4 cylinder motorcycle & VW 4 cylinder IDI diesel MLS head gaskets in Multi-Layer Steel gaskets. They can custom make about anything. Sending a proper CAD drawing is best. We had some alignment issues on one batch of Suzuki GS650 custom big bore gaskets, but when a CAD drawing was sent for the re-make in lieu of a gasket scan or used gasket sample, all came out well. |
Re: V6 Magnum Gaskets

Re: V6 Magnum Gaskets
If I recall, someone on this forum has CAD drawings of many of our big block V6 gaskets already made up.
Cutting paper/felt/neoprene/viton/etc isnt too difficult. The rubbery materials are a bit tougher. A set of hole punch pliers or hollow point punches really help. |
Re: V6 Magnum Gaskets
Felpro 305 intake Gaskets will work fine on a magnum motor. Surface the exhaust manifolds on a belt sander surface machine and don't use Gaskets on them and your in business. Don't over complicate, that is my experience. Dave

Re: V6 Magnum Gaskets
your probably right, but what is the point of the larger free flowing intake manifold if it blocked by 1/2 inch hanging in gasket material from the smaller gaskets
