Question Gaskets ... ?

>All of you guys that did an engine rebuild whether it was a stroker or just a regular rebuild .
Did you get a kit with all the gaskets from the throttle body to the oil pan , or did you have to hunt each indiviual gasket down ? also what thickness did you use for your head gaskets (super charger users) ?

My gaskets came with my stroker kit. It was every gasket from Throttle Body down to the oil pan, and I didn't need to search around at all.

I have no clue the thickness of my header gaskets though.. See ya

Don't make it sound more difficult than it is.

Use Fel-Pro gaskets, just tell who-ever you're buying your parts from what your application is and you'll be good to go.

Some websites list all that stuff, try www.racenet.net

Fel-Pro only makes on LT-1 head gasket.

>I'm not making anything difficult ... just asking a simple question .
I understand that all the gaskets are available through almost any automotive retail store , but I was looking for a whole set , or a partial set that was a little less "pricey" than what Auto Zone or Advanced Auto sell them for . I see that Thunder Racing sells a kit and Summit Racing also . Thanks for your suggestions .

i got all my gaskets from jason cromer in florida. he is a gm dealer that sells parts wholesale. the only gaskets i got some where else was the head gaskets for the afr heads and the exhaust ports i got with my long tube headers. (earls came free)

jasons number is 877-726-8295. he is by far cheaper than thunder racing and internet racer. i was also able to return my gaskets i did not use 6 month later with out a problem or restocking fee.
