Could I get some advise on head gaskets for an omc 49.
Just wondering if oem or aftermarket are the way to go and where to go for the best price.
Sounds like I'll need a few spare.
Thanks - John

Paul likely has some at Top Gun for a good price. Doesn't really matter OEM or aftermarket. Just make sure when your head is cut for the compression you want, keep using the same brand of gasket as different brands can be different thicknesses. I think a Sierra is about .010" thicker than OEM. If you had your head cut close to 160 with a Sierra and then put an OEM gasket on, it might put you over.
