It's really not that difficult to DYI. Just take your time. If you need to mark all the cable ends and the vacuum lines. It took me about 2 hours to do. All you need is some time, a torque wrench, and a few sockets.

Can anyone post some links to fix's for this. whats the fel pro gasket # for the one I'll need. copper rtv ? any tips, things that will make it easier for me?

 

no one? I did a search and still coudnt find part #'s for the gasket...

I found a link to projecttransam for the fix

I need fuel disconnect tools..

ultra high temp copper rtv

fel pro gasket (WHICH ONE)

tourge wrench.. (gotta go finally buy)

and i have the rest of the tools I belive...

any TIPS/TRICKS???????

 

I used the AC Delco gaskets and they worked just fine--unless of course you just prefer the Fel-pros.

I can't think of any big tips or tricks--take your time and try to be patient. I put a thin bead of Ultra Copper on my gaskets as well. That's all I can think of.

 

what was the gm part # ? for the intake gasket?

 

I believe it is Part No. 12524653

(That's what the Camaro Parts Manual is showing for a 95-97 LT1--it shows it as being a kit, so I'm guessing both gaskets are included.)

I ordered mine from a local dealer so I can't be certain--I have the PN at home but I'm sure someone else can chime in and confirm.

EDIT: GMPartsDirect is showing it as a Manifold Gasket so I'm pretty sure that's what you need. ($17.69)

 

if you need the parts ASAP then dont go with GMPartsdirect. They have awesome prices, but they took 13 days to ship my stuff. Not too quick

 

I'll do it for you, but you need to pay my airfare from Bakersfield, California...

 

I could do it but Im in Buffalo....

 

96z, I sent ya a PM
