Gaskets needed for billet OPG's

[SGcoyote]

I'm about to install some billet OPG's and remove my pan to weld a AN bung on and was wondering what gaskets i would need if the gaskets will be not be reusable.

Thanks

All reusable. Make sure to have some black permatex handy. Some will recommend you to replace front cover balancer seal but I personally did not.

Thanks ordered all the gaskets from quirkparts for 50 bucks

did you get the MMR install bolt too? Some people just use the old crank bolt I just ordered the MMR install bolt you use it just to start getting the balancer back on.
Good price.

 

[SGcoyote]

I haven't ordered that, can you reuse the factory one to get it started

It's not long enough. Fasenal had the bolt for $7 but will probably have to order it in for ya.

Any chance you know a PN?

Don't forget the valve cover gaskets. I don't think you have to take the oil pan off. My friend did his with out removing the oil pan.

I asked about that to MMR said you are not supposed to completely tighten the balancer down it is meant to get it 3/4 on or so.

I don't know it off the top of my head but it was a M12x1.5 about 5 inches long.

That kit has valve cover gaskets. I've got to pull the oil pan to weld a drain fitting in on mine, that's why i'll be getting this kit.

This is the one my friend used.

The bolt isn't long enough to get started to even pull it onto the shaft. You'll need a longer bolt.

 

[Blazer707@TBR]

For the price its cheap insurance to just replace all the gaskets. Also I always point people to the MMR install bolt.

The one we had was long enough, maybe the wrong one was shipped.
