    i have not clicked the links yet but thought i would add something.
    last weekend i finally got my 90 cutlass 3.1 back together from a failed head gasket. the shop i took my heads to to be sure it was just a gasket did a valve job as well. so they needed the parts for that and that came from the head gasket kit. so when i picked up the heads i got that kit and the heads back.
    now when i went to another store to pick up the rest of the parts i got an intake set. but forgot the exhaust set so i had to make another stop.
    anyways
    do the listings you are doing have individual gaskets of the sets or both?
    i ended up with 2 TB gaskets. must have been one in each set. and 2 of the o-ring for the distributor.

      I'm not breaking down what individual gaskets come in each. I know the head gasket kit usually includes every gasket (except perhaps the exhaust) from the heads up (TB, intake, valve seals, inj. o-rings, valve cover, etc..). If I can get ahold of Fel-Pro about it, then perhaps I will be able to list everything.

        understood.
        was just looking for some clarification on what the numbers represented.
        in town here fel-pro is the major gasket purchased. from near as i can tell anyways with what i have purchased in the last 2 years of owning my 90 cutlass.

          Are you talking exhaust manifold gaskets? In the Fel-Pro kit I bought for my '95, the exhaust gaskets were included.

            Ok, its been awhile since I bought a head gasket kit. So I wasn't sure if they were included or not. I thought they were, but from Monty's post, it sounded like he got the kit and it didn't have the exhaust manifold gaskets. That is why I said 'perhaps' when saying that the exhaust wasn't included.

                One of the pics I took of the DOHC head set that is getting sent to Brad is one of the front label on the box, which has a list of all of the gaskets in the set and FelPro part numbers. Not that this helps you pushrod guys out.
