^^^ THIS. Go to one of the forum GM parts vendors such as
www.gmpartshouse.com or to your dealership.

There is no such thing as an "LS 3 427"
But for your LS3, or for an LS7 427, I agree with the posters above for supplies, because the stock factory gaskets are what just about everyone uses.

Here is where the LS3 427 starts but not going into a forum discussion on it. Thanks for the feedback I will stick with the factory gaskets

And if you really have that engine in your vette, you have a very nice setup too!!
I think you now know what I mean't tought, the LS3 is a 6.2 liter engine as a factory install from GM, where the LS7 is a 7.0 liter ("427") from them.
There is so much misinformation in forums out here one the internet, I get a little testy on details sometimes, sorry.....
