My father and I are currently rebuilding an original 289 from a 1965 GT350. We are putting the heads back together and looking for information on a correct head gasket to use for this. Would aftermarket head gaskets be considered poor taste? IF not where could I source original head gaskets? IF aftermarket is ok what are some recommendations?
Also is there a correct painting of the valve covers? From what my father remembers the valve covers were black crinkle with the powered by ford and raised bits being unpainted aluminum. Is this correct?
Thank you for any assistance
