Best Complete Gasket kits

[buffblazer]

gonna pull the 350 out of the blazer and re seal it.

dont need head gaskets but am gonna do the oil pan, intake,timing cover, valve covers, rear main and also i need the cam seals (my rear one is leaking)

does anyone make a complete kit? i used a felpro kit last time but it did not have the cam seals and i installed everything properly but only got about 4k out of the seals and now they are leaking bad.

Fel-Pro is my first choice then Victor Reinz. There is no "cam seal" on a SBC unless you're talking about the cam plug which is just a shallow freeze plug.

Use 3M Weatherstrip and Engine Adhesive if you want it to never leak again. Comes in a tube in black or yellow (Gorilla Snot) at any parts store.

Clean the surfaces grease free with brake cleaner and glue it on. It will not even seep after that. I use black.

I have been using this stuff since before black was available and it was only a weatherstrip adhesive.

I would use permatex #2 or high heat silicone on the intake to head and the 3M on each end. I would not put the 3M on intake to head. That said I will use 3M everywhere that I am having trouble sealing.

Use Fel Pro.

IMO theres no other brand worth looking at

So you use that tape and the adhesive instead of gaskets?

He means the tube of weatherstrip adhesive PLUS the gaskets to make a better seal. No tape.
