I think I have everything to install my cam. But I was wandering what gaskets and seals are needed?

 

Theoretically front engine cover, water pump, and crank pulley seal ( hard to call it harmonic balancer anymore ). The valve covers have o-ring style gaskets, and the lifter cups hold them up once you rotate the cam a few times with the pushrods removed so no need to yank the intake or TB. Even the front cover is silicon impregnated but it is cheap enough.
Only other concern is the crank bolt. Some say TTY thus replace, others have re-used. Again spend the few extra bucks for it.

 

timing cover seal
crank seal
crank bolt
water pump gaskets
cheap oil to run through motor to make sure no trash was in their
coolant

 

I reused all of my gaskets & the bolt on my last cam swap. Only thing i replaced was coolant. But my truck did only have 12,000 miles on it

 

Screw all the gasket business. I just got some RTV Silicone gasket maker. Line it along the water pump and timing cover. No problem. Only cost me $5.00.

 

sounds like a farmer trick

 

I went straight off of LS1howto.com and they said you can get by with just a tube of RTV so thats what i did but yea it is a farmer trick.
