Default head gasket

I am the not so happy owner of a V8 steam engine, as it has blown a head gasket. Glad I installed realgauge, as the alarm went off and allowed me to shut the engine down before it did more damage. I will change both head gaskets, and the chains and tensioners. Where is the best place to get these parts?

Please remember to use 4.2 MLS gaskets instead of weak orginal gasket type.
