    Guys, I'm getting ready to wrap up with this head gasket job on a '97 GTP, but have a question. In the head gasket set they included some o-rings that I'm not sure where they all go. I have two yellos, two orange, and three black o-rings. I'm pretty sure that the two yellows go on the intake/supercharger, but am not sure of the rest. Can anybody help please?

    This is the kit:

    The oranges would be for the coolant elbow, however you should automatically replace the elbows. the blacks.. pcv is one and I know there's likely a thermostat gasket.. that leaves probably 1.. usually there's a spare of something large that we don't use, like an old distributor gasket
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.

    Thank you for the quick response. The elbows are being replaced with metal Dorman pieces for sure. For the supercharger/intake there are only those two yellows ones that go in between right?
