What other seals/gaskets do I need to put this on my car as soon as possible? Thanks.
did you get the cam acps with the head??? this is very important!!!! you could have possible clearence issues using your old cam caps... the caps are exactly matched to the head, you could get luckey and not have a problem. ususally whenever i see a head that is for sale and does not come with the cap i dont even think about purchasing it. you can try to use you old caps but make sure that you mic the cams and the caps to make sure that there is sufficent oil clearence or you could have a serious problem. i.e. metal shavings entering your motor. lmk if you need help with this...
