so i found out i blew my head gaskets today....

i need any and all info pertaining to putting new ones on, like the process, does the engine have to be dropped or lifted, what all parts do i need, etc...

i know all you fellow LT1 lovers out there have some knowledge in this field, whereas i have none. this is my first F body and my first LT motor...

i used to drive a Mustang GT 5.0 fox body... but soon found out z's are better! lol

help?

 

Make sure you take the heads to a machine shop when you have them off.

Buy or borrow a good torque wrench and have a helper.

 

can i change the gaskets with the engine in or does it HAVE to be out?

 

I am pretty sure you can do it with the engine in place.

it can be done without removing the engine
