Stock gaskets? you can get those from a local dealership.

If you want aftermarket:

Lol I paid like $30 for a complete gasket kit for my 3.4 from Orielly's. I bought it almost a year ago for my 95 and it has been sitting on my table ever since, I would give it to you but too bad it doesn't fit.

Also do you live in Pearland?

I'd listen to usd2sing. He's got a v6 that will blow your mind. Hell of a guy too. He won't steer you wrong.

I bought a Fel-Pro head gasket kit from vatozone in '07 for $150. And a starter for $120 lol. Pull the plugs out and put them back in before you try to start the car to move it to do the work.
