Re: LIM gasket

thanks for all the help guys, I wouldn't of done it with out your help!!!!

Anyway, tblake good luck on them GM aluminum gaskets, they didnt work for me . What I noticed was that , the gasket didnt meet up with the valley/edge gasket very good. Felpro's fit like a glove!

Hopefully they wont leak this time.
Well talk to you guys soon.

Re: LIM gasket

School of hard knocks. I recall recommending using the FelPro gaskets only. There are many anecdotal failures reported on the revised GM aluminum framed LIM gaskets.

Re: LIM gasket

Ahhh, now you guys tell me. HA HA!

Just finished mine up. No issues, I snapped pictures which I will post in a bit.

Only thing was when I first started it, it ran terrible and the SES light was flashing. I plugged in my scanner and it came back with a P0300. Quick glance at my coil packes and I realized I mixed up plug wires 2 and 4. OOPS! (IDIOT!) Once swapped, it rann exceptional.

Re: LIM gasket

Bob should had demoted me by now for all my retarded remarks.

Like that one thread where a member was some sort of problem. In the original post he stated that he had is LIM gaskets and UIM changed a few months prior.

I posted a reply and asked if he had a 3800SC or 3800NA.

Rich called me out and Bob dang near banned me. I had to plead with him to keep my advisor status. I'm still greatfull, thanks Bob!

Here's some pics I took of my LIM gasket replacement...
