First off, if you want info about my ride, it will be in my Sig below, just click the build progress link. For those who do not know...of course. Lol!
I decided to do my Lower Intake Manifold gasket before doing my power steering complete unit job. I will be starting the project in a couple of weeks. Before I start I want to make sure that I have everything I need.
I prefer to get acdelco gaskets, instead of the Fel-Pro ones, but I'm not sure which ones would be better to use. Maybe it doesn't make a difference. Let me know what you think about this. Also, let me know, if I missed anything or need to add to the list.
Now for the list!
- Aluminum Lower Intake Manifold Gasket
- Metal Coolant Elbows...I'm not sure, if I need 1 or 2.
- Throttle Body Gasket
- Supercharger Gasket "Upper Plenum" w/Rings
- Valve Cover Gasket w/Grommets
- Fuel Injectors O-Rings...I'm not sure how many
- Permatex*thread sealant for LIM bolts
- Permatex RTV for corners of LIM
- AutoLite Spark Plugs...What spark plugs are best for the mods I have listed in my Sig?
- Spark Plug Wires
- 180* Thermostat
- Oil for Oil Change
- 1 Gallon Concentrated Coolant
- Cleaning Supplies....I really don't know what I need for this. Enlightened me Please....Lol.
- Paint to touch up parts....I don't know what I need for this.
- Lmao....I need to clean the trunk out to put my uninstalled parts in.
I just recently replaced water pump and alternator. I might do the power steering pump while I'm down in there.
I'm been looking around the net for torque specs, but every time I see some specs they are different from the next specs I see. So, I'm kind of confused on this aspect of the replacement.
I have a garage full of tools I would say I have the tools to do this project.
