Finding multiple people saying different things here.
Anyone know for sure what head gasket to use for a P8R B20 head and a b18b LS block?

Also, I assume I just use the LS timing belt and water pump, right?

Thanks for any answers. I really appreciate it.

FYI, I'm using this head because my stock head is warped and I got a good deal on the p8r.
I'm not trying to build a race car, this is my daily driver.

you'll have to use an ls gasket.

So, not the B20 gasket? The p8r b20 head is 84mm, unlike all of the normal b20 heads.

yes ls gasket. if you use an 84mm gasket on 81mm sleeves, you're gonna have a leak.

try to buy a ls head and sell the p8r head. you can sell the p8r head for a good price cause people are dieing to get ahold of p8r heads.

Always match the head gasket to the block you are using or you may have leaks. Yeah why not have your Ls head milled and refreshed and just sell the P8R head. People pay $$$ for them since they are really hard to find.
