Default Valve seals (Pics)

Just bought these valve seals from Thunder? I thought that the intake and exhaust seals were different colors/part numbers. Are these gonna work?

Yes, those will work. I thought the same thing when I got mine from texas speed. I called and they verified that they were correct. They are the same seal used on both intake and exhaust valves.

I bought one set direct from GM and they were different colors. I believe those are just standard Viton seals which are fine.

The Felpro viton seals are black (intake) and red (exhaust). But there are others that are just black. If you got them from Thunder, I'm sure they're fine.

Well I ordered seals from my dealer. I got two bags, a set of intake, and a set of exhaust seals. They do look the same.... BUT... the prices were different!!! One set was about $8 more!!!

They ripped me off.

As mentioned above, those seals will work just fine. Good luck with the install.
