Well, I'm burning antifreeze and I've got antifreeze in the oil. Bummer. So, I'm looking for head gaskets for the 260 engine, and hope it's only the gasket that's bad. I've looked at a couple of places, and for instance NAPA had about six different ones. Where can I get the head gasket(s)? Also, since I've got the head off, what else should I try to do (hardened valve stems??) and where do I get the parts? I am having someone do the work on the 20th, so I need the parts by then.

As far as I know 221-260 head gaskets are the same. Ask for ones for a 3.8" cylinder bore, not a 4" bore like a 289 or 302. You might want to put in hardened valve seats and any engine machine shop can do this.
