Working on my quarantine head gasket project and hit a snag. Machine shop buddy just said the heads need 0.01". Previously ordered the FelPro 6.2L kit but I need to find +0.01 head gaskets. Searching for part numbers so far only delivered 6.5L gaskets. Anyone have a part number of dealer to...

Likely right but since this is a tinker project, going to pull heads and replace the $50 head gaskets. Debating head machining or just checking warpage and throwing back on. If it fails again, the 6.5 makes sense. Thanks for suggestion.

Are the heads universal between drivers and passenger sides?

We add beer in the mix. Might as well go full Cummings swap (totally kidding). Let’s see if we can beat 11hour start to finish.

I have no idea but it's been mentioned a couple times by other people (not in this posting). My only reservation would be taking the engine down and have it still leaking. Figure if I get the fuel line off and valve covers unstuck, I might as well remove the bolts and replace gasket.

That’s some solid advice on the thicker gasket. Good liking out. New engine installed 2010. So not terribly old and still has most of original factory paint on intake and block. Wasn’t planning on pulling IP but guess it’s not too bad. Appreciate the comments and starting project Friday afternoon.

Thanks. Was hopping to just pull the fuel lines and not have to do the IP. Mostly worried about setting pump timing and costs. What’s the max I can take off the head if warped a little? Heard 0.04 max shops should machine. Curious how I am bubbling oil but not smoking the exhaust on intake...

So coolant and oil are clean and not losing too much (oil from valve covers). Would head gasket treatment work? Sorry but what’s IP (injection pump?). Thanks for the reply. Do these gaskets go often?

Can someone check the attached video of my 6.2L 1987 (rebuilt 2010) M998 engine with possible head gasket leak? Like to confirm it’s leaking before spending 10+ hours repairing the gasket. No milky oil No overpressure in coolant No smoke except for a minute at startup Slight loss of power lately...

Trying to stop passenger front portal axle input leak. Ordered seal from EasternSupply (shown as two part seal) vs. what was installed (just removed). This can’t be the correct seal (although diameter fits axle and portal). Is this a two piece seal? In driveway right now and could use help...
