Well I'm just about to dive into the repairs on my blown head gasket CRD and would like some suggestions on best avenues for parts with any upgrades you all recommend.
This is what I have:
05 Libby with 164,XXX miles, GDE Hot tune, Sasquatch Stage 1&2 EGR delete, updated fuel filter head, Carter 4600 rotary vane fuel pump, Rebuilt tranny with all the good stuff..., recent vibration dampener/crank pulley, recent tranny cooler/AC condenser, Timing set replaced about 60K ago
This is what I know I need but would like help sourcing parts with:
Timing belt kit
(Sasquatch or IDParts, both have the correct kits. Be sure and replace the belt tensioner, the two idler pulleys, and the water pump while you are replacing the cam belt ) Head studs
(IDParts) https://www.idparts.com/ https://shop.sasquatchparts.com/Head gasket and any other gaskets needed for this
(IDParts for the head gasket, be sure and replace your head gasket with the same thickness gasket that it came with from the factory unless you are having the head milled which is not recomended since these heads have a special nickel coating on the alimunium mating surface.
As for other gaskets needed, depends on what all else you are planning on doing.New HD fan and clutch
(Best option is the 11 blade GM fan and heavy duty V8 fan clutch used on GM trucks with the HD cooling and towing package.
See this thread for more information:> viewtopic.php?f=5&t=82941What else do you all recommend I get? If you can post sources and part numbers needed that would be awesome
Thanks all!
