where can you get cheap gasket set? I am rebuilding a '99 LS1 for my firebird. Where could I go to get a cheap complete gasket set for the entire engine. Do I need all new gaskets or can some of them be reused? I also am needing to know where to find a set of the side main cap bolts with the o-rings on them.

Some Sponsers make up kits, but there is no (that I know of yet) true GM kit. Felpro composite head gaskets are probably the chepest, I've found them at my local parts store for $19.
The side bolts can be bought from SDPC or your local dealer. I don't have the PN at this moment. YOu can search the archives for it. You can also clean them real good and use Copper RTV under each head, allowing it to dry before final torquing (don't put any when cheacking clearances)
