head gasket & bolts

[bluebones]

probably been asked loads of times but just wondering whats the best gasket and head bolts to use for my large turbo escos and power will be running about 360bhp, i have read that the small turbo gasket is better than the group A, and is it best to use standard head bolts or a stud and nut kit?
thanks in advance

Group a gasket and standard bolts

YB1261 small turbo gasket & std bolts will be perfectly fine at that power level, Buton sell the the gaskets cheap as chips

Never had any problems with the YB611 GPA head gasket. Ran them for the best part of 15 years of motor sport and road use.
Standard head bolts for your power/boost application. New ones every time remember.
Only moved to the WRC and studs on my last 7.1:1 cr engine running 2.2bar big cams and aggressive ALS.

Small turbo gasket is better quality than group A so that's best way to go
