Gaskets


Alright, due to me havind a stud broken off in my head and also a hole cross threaded, i am now forced to swap out my heads because i got a nasty leak because i cant get my headers tight...

Question is, do i need to buy all new gaskets? I know head gaskets and header gaskets would be a good idea, but do i need to change all the others?

Also, what are some good things to have while putting back together a top end? Obviously a torque wrench and a fuel line disconector thingy, but do i put anything on the bolts or on the gaskets as well?

+198276282 on that and dont forget to silicone the front and rear of the manifold gasket. They tend to leak oil sometimes..

also to help prevent further leaks, try some gasket sealant.
