are you a dealer and give me a total price on everything

[Tuscany]

No I am not a dealer and can't get you a price for everything but you can order from the vendors listed in the list and will receive the same prices I listed.

[Korx]

I would send your injectors out to Jesse warren to be gone through while they're out and you have some down time depending on mileage.

I am about 9 hours into mine and I already have the heads off.

Make sure you take heads to a machine shop.

Flush coolant BEFORE teardown.

Take lots of reference pictures and label all nuts and bolts.

sweet thanks yea injectors have been replaced already
any one use that ford soloution kit from xtremediesel or rudys performance?
it includes the major stuff
and what is a better gasket? the victor or ford oe

[Bluedemon6.0]

Oem hgs. I looked at the same options kit wise. I went with different vendors, it will probably save you $$ in the long run. Tuscany has combined a list of pretty much everything that is needed by part number to do hgs. I wish this list was out when I was doing mine back in June. That is why I say take a look a stickys, there is a lot of good advice and pics to walk you through the while process. Good luck on the hgs.

Only use OEM head gaskets. The list I gave you has most of the best prices you can get on any of the parts you need/want for your head stud and gasket job. At most shoppin around outside of this list may save you $100-$200 but it will take a lot of work and time to find all of the parts I listed at a cheaper price. Also remember all of the parts on that list from sunrise ford include free shipping and if you don't live in california you won't pay tax on it either.

[bull.rider]

any one use black onyx gaskets? and what makes the oem gaskets more supirior then aftermarket?
