I believe you need a 1900 head gasket, (I could be wrong though)

Yep I'm using that one too - you need to weld the head, and skim it and the intake face too. I got pics if it helps.

Yep - to fit the Zetec multi-layer gasket, you need to weld the head. The other ones fit without it, but for the extra work you can use the WRC style gasket.
