Also, I've read some stuff about the new bolts, and I don't remember if I saw something about the new bolts being longer or are they the same size?

Thanks
My shopping list consists of:

1) Lower intake gasket from OEM
2) Fuel rail O-ring from OEM (I've never used after market so can't comment)
3) Upper intake or plenum gasket
4) 2 valve cover gaskets
5) Tube of high heat gasket maker
6) Can of gasket cleaner
7) Plastic putty knife
8) 1 foot of 3/8" fuel line
9) 2 gallons of Antifreeze...most probably DEX
10) oil and filter
11) Blue Loctite (serviceable)
12)thermostat
13) belt
14) plugs, dielectric grease, antiseize and wires,
15) 18mm wrench and deep socket. (they normally don't come in a set)


Those items are all I ever needed. I reused these parts but you may want to buy them and return if not needed.

1) O-ring for heater pipe to water pump
2) EGR gasket
3) Injector o-rings if you take them out.
