Hey yooo! Im almost getting my block and head from the machine shop! I was just wondering. I see the cometic gasket kit where there is pretty much everything i need for the seals and o rings and gaskets, are these recomended? Or should i buy em 1 by 1 like fell pros and stuff?
And also can anyone point me to a direction on how to see if my oil pump and housing is still in good reusable condition. I bought this engine rebuilt with the balancer deletes but i wanna make sure its in good shape? Ill replace the seals forsure but what about those gears?
Same goes to the timing automatic tensioner? How do i know its still good?
Im replacing the waterpumps and thermostats forsure and all 0 rings based on the gasket kits list. What else should i replace? I just dont wanna go back again after its done and in the car.
