lilindy500 Posted December 10, 2010 Report Share Posted December 10, 2010 I bought a head gasket/cam swap kit from texas speed when I replaced my head gaskets. I only used the head gaskets, everything else is new GM stuff still in the box. Want it? I can't get it from the farm until like the 18th or something though, not sure if that will be soon enough for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

misterp Posted December 10, 2010 Report Share Posted December 10, 2010 (edited) All LS engine oil pump pickup tube o-rings have been redone into ONE design, there is now one (red?) O-ring that works for all LS motors. The front cover gasket and valve cover gaskets age very, very well in these motors and I've yet to see one that needed replacing, go ahead and get them but you will find that your originals are probably in like-new condition and reuseable and you can return the new ones for a refund. I have seen water pump gaskets f'd-up from a bad install (how you screw-up installing water pump gaskets I dunno, but it happened lol) but they should be reusable too unless the rubber has become hard/brittle. Replacing the front crank seal is always a good idea, remember to sand down the wear lip on the balancer if it is pronounced from lots of miles of use. Mr. P. Edited December 10, 2010 by Mr. P.
