Default H/C/I gaskets......

I searched and couldn't find a thread in the first few pages (of a few different querys) with this info which I assumed was a fairly common question.

I am doing a heads, cam and intake swap and want a good list of gaskets that are reccomended to be replaced.

Obviously head gaskets....but what else?

I have the 90mm O ring, and all of the individual fast o rings already.

Thanks for the help....or a link to this question already being asked.

There are quite a few small items involved. What I did was order a kit for the job. I got mine from Thunder Racing.

I saw those packages. I guess I will pick and choose out of those because I am not using GM head gaskets and I have ex. mani gaskets that are only a couple thousand miles old.

1) water pump (if damaged)
2) head gaskets
3) exhaust gaskets
4) egr and air tube gaskets (if damaged)
5) crank pulley bolt

Usually the intake, front timing cover, water pump and valve cover gaskets are reusable. If they appear damaged then swap them out as well.
