What gaskets and/or sets do I need to cover everything???

Tim89LXvert · 01-28-2002, 11:05 AM

I have my engine out of the car now, and it is totally stripped down.

To put it back together, I need all new gaskets, the only exception being the valve cover gaskets because I have some rubber coated steel core ones that I will reuse (again). I also want the 4 piece oil pan gasket to work with my Canton Oil pan.

Does anyone know what head, intake, exhaust and oil pan gaskets come in Fel-pro set KS-2337? The set is for 86-92 motors. Autozone lists them for $84. Seems like a great deal if it is complete. Anyone know if there are gaskets missing that I will need to get in addition to the kit?

What other options/recommendations do you have?

I used the FMS kit from Holcomb Motorsports.. It had all I needed in it. Intake,head,valve cover, timing cover, but I think I used the one piece rubber oil pan gasket w/ the metal rings.. the autozone kit should be fine for a stock re-assemble I think if you had bigger heads/intake you would want to run bigger Port gaskets

I am not doing anything major, I do have larger heads and intake: GT40 heads and Cobra intake.

I wanted to use the 1250 intake and 1415 exhaust. Just wondering if someone knows if these are the gaskets in the kit?
