So I've got it on a stand and it's about to get worked on. I'm putting a rear main on it while it's out to stop that leak. My question to you guys who have done this before me. Can I reuse the exhaust plumbing gaskets? They look fine but idk. Also can I reuse any other gaskets other than hg and what come in hg kit?

You can reuse the up pipe to turbo and manifold to up pipe gaskets. But they are cheap so why not just put new ones on? Those should be the only gaskets other than the head gasket that you mess with.

You will need fuel line seals (3 different sizes), an Injector seal kit, coolant crossover gaskets, A couple of those coolent pipe o rings.

I would not reuse the exhaust gaskets, it will just bite you in the ass when they leak later.

I would also pull the injector cups and reseal them and use new orings.

Think thats everything.

Thanks I think I have them all now. I bought the victor brand thickest gaskets or "c". Should I have the head shoP surface the deck for me? Also I need a good source for bolt torque and sequence. For all fasteners
