Headin to machine shop tomorrow with my fresh used block from SCP to get some work done (just the basics). I am puting the felpro MLS head gaskets on and am wondering if any prep work for those headgaskets will be needed? If so I can have the shop do it a the same time. Thanks everyone.

The block needs to be decked for the MLS head gaskets to ensure proper sealing. The heads need to be milled as well before installation if they are being reused.
 
the "RA" roughness average of both the heads and deck must be much smoother than normal stones at most machine shops can do, check with the machinist first. the smoother the better with mls gaskets.
 
just realized that the RA recommendation is on the fel-pro package for the head gaskets lol. Dropped all my stuff off at the shop today and they say no problem and they know exactly what to do...just $ is needed now ;)
