Head replacement questions
Hi all, have a 2001 V10 on F550 chassis. Looking at replacing the heads because exhaust manifold bolts are beyond repair. Just wondering if anyone has suggestions for best complete gasket sets. Will likely do the water pump as long as it’s apart. Thanks in advance.

Sorrry, I don’t have any head gasket info that you are looking for but I am curious as just how jacked up your exhaust manifold bolts are. Have they been done previously and oversized or drilled out too deep into the water chambers? Or just several broken off flush with or below the surface? I had a couple broken when I installed my headers and it was a fair bit of work to get them out but was doable in the driveway.
