460 Gasket Set???

I need a full gasket set for my 1987 F-250 460. I see at least 3 listings over the years, and a massive difference in price. Can anyone tell me the difference between, say the 1985 and prior gasket set and one listed for my 1987? Also, I plan on using DOVE-C heads on my rebuild, will that make a difference on gasket sets?

Thanks,
Tim

If you on using DOVE-C heads you will need to use the eariler gasket set due to intake port difference between carb heads and efi heads, that is if the 87 is efi.

This was the last year with a carb.

I figured that 87 was the last year for carbs if it was me I would use the cheaper kit
I have had good luck with felpro KS2305 gasket set
