i did my lim gaskets for 60 bucks by buying this and that here and there, on the cheap, and i had 20 bucks on my az card, that covered my coolant and most of the sc gasket.

the only thing i ordered was the lim gaskets from rockauto. the rest was all local pick up.

and i looked all over, you wont find metal lim gaskets any cheaper then rock auto. 43 shipped is a steal. and find a discount code for rock auto as well, i saved 3 bucks, made the shipping free.

they picked dead center of the state so its about the same distance for most to get there. most of us are a hour or so out.

mays landing is a ride, i got my cdl lic down there, no lines, up here its a 2 month wait for the test. they only had a 2 week wait lol

If you leave the water pump on the front cover you don't have to replace that gasket.
