Time for headgaskets

[goodie454]

Well looks like I have a winter project head gaskets and studs on my 05 lly. 190k on the clock. Anything else anyone would recommend doing while I have the motor out. thinking lml driverside manifold for sure. just don't know what else to beef up. Trans I also going to get built this winter as well. Would like to eventually do a s475 over stock.

Perhaps change the water pump, install head studs, etc

Forgot to add I just did a welded water pump and thermostats 2 weeks ago

I would look at the downpipe as another mod

I always recommend doing thermostats,water pump and glow plugs with a HG job. Also you might think about the drivers side LML manifold as well. Let us know if we can help with a complete HG kit at a very competitive price!

Creatures of the Night Performance have an awesome gasket kit with studs for a little under 1000. They're awesome to deal with too
