I was thinking i might just get that out of the way now, or maybe in a few months if i decide to do head work. what do you guys think? i dont get any smoke no so i might wait till i decide to do the head work.......

 

Go ahead and do it. Its only a few extra bucks and a few extra minutes. What if you don't get to do your heads in a few months?

 

Yeah good point, any idea on how much a set of felpro seals go for or any for that matter?

 

I believe they are only about 20 bucks it would be a good idea to put them in while you are there.

 

Ok then its settled im going to just do it since ill have it apart.

 

I have this old bike I've been restoring for a LONG time now here and there. That fricken' thing has burned me more than once when I decided to skip over a $5 part or seal I could have changed while I was inside the motor. 'nuff said..

Well the one place i called that i know i would be able to get them from only has the intake ones in stock, so im gonna have to search around tomorrow for the exhaust ones cause im doing this all on sat and if im gonna do them, i gotta find them. Nothin like waiting till the last minute lol

 

ok heres another ? are the intake ones the same as the exhaust ones? cause two places i called have part numbers for ony the one?

 

They are the same.Try doing a search.I know I answered a thread with the part #'s

 

I did the search but i didnt find that post you were talking about, I would go through your posts but that would take me weeks lol

 

GM part numbers are different for intake and exhaust. I got a set of viton seals from Combination Motorsports when I did my [free ]springs and they were all the same. I think most aftermarket ones are the same.

 

I am planning on getting the felpros, do you know if they are vitan? The first place i called for them said they had the intake ones in stock but not the exhaust ones. The other place i called said they only carry intake ones 16 of themn to be exact, but there is no part number in thier system for the exhaust ones. i think its strange.so the gm ones are exactly the same? why would they use different part numbers for them then? One more thing, you registered in 1970? and have over 10,000 posts? Is that for real????Has this site been here that long? Thats insane!lol

 

for 93 LT1 GM ones are the same. For 94-97 intake and exhaust valve seals are different. The exhaust ones are red in color.

 

The GM seals are as Blk94Z28LT1 said. I don't know why some are the same and others are different. I am sure the Felpros are decent seals, but don't know about the viton content.

This is from the site help page:
The post count is for real. The crazy thing is it did not take me 30 years to get that many, LOL! Sorry, I don't have a real life. There are people with more posts than me (I'm not racing anyone ). 99.9% of mine are in the LT1 forum.

 

I got the default registration date too. I don't post much though. I actually registered in '97.
