Could you maybe send me a PM about what they screwed you on since I was planning on ordering a couple of parts from them for my rebuild?

check the head gaskets they send you. pay close attention to ensure you get the right ones. i got one head gasket for a 5.3 and one for a 6.0!


motor is in. but one head is coming off to find a small problem. then it should be ok.

Why buy factory stuff from them when you have a hook up at a gm dealer?
I hope your wrong about the engines life. Sounds like your luck is starting to be like mine

true randy. i had ordered some other stuff from them and just told them to toss in a pair of head gaskets.

i don't think it's anything major. just a pita to pull the intake then head and reinstall. but hey, thats life. i just need to get it done early so i can get to mobile and get tuned
