Ready to put her back together, what else do i need ?
I am ready to put back together the woman and looking to see what else I need to do the job with minimal stops to Autozone.
I have about 2 gallons of antisieze compound.
I know I need gasket maker stuff for the front and rear of the intake to stop that leak.
I see a few components had orange stuff on the threads, like the knock module, what is that ?
Banjo Gaskets, do they need any lubricant ?
Am I missing anything?

you'll need..
4 gallons of MIXED coolant (DEX COOL) the orange stuff... they have it at autozone, get the ZEREX PRE-MIXED
intake gaskets
header gaskets
timing cover gasket
waterpump gaskets
copper rtv sealant for the front and back of the intake
silver rtv for the waterpump gaskets
and a throttle body gasket
think that's it

If the car is pre 96 it came with green antifreeze. And yes there are terrible things about Dexcool. Heatercore plugging and eating freeze plugs to name a few. I drained and flushed all the Dexcool out of my 96 Impala ss and have been using Prestone green now for 4 years with no problems. Dexcool clogged my heater core. Good luck

If you dont allready have them you may want to get some new head bolts....get some thread sealer too for the intake and head bolts. You want need the antisieze on anything other than the plugs so I belive you can take 1 gallon back

Is this correct ?
