Really sucks when your waitng to finish a install and fire a motor and you get flaked on for parts promised . What like 3 different times .

The motor mount bolt , o-rings for leak , seal tool , 36mm socket , head gaskets 2 weeks later than promised . It became a joke towards the end and Jason and Tommy came through on a bunch of this stuff . And Greg stewietuned hooked me up with tools and seal tool . It was frustrating .

Greg do you think you have this in stock ...... let me go check ..... come on down gassy we got it .

Thanks henry for the list of part numbers. Being at the new dealership - these guys don't know duramax at all so having a list of part numbers really helped out !

Tommy should have his gaskets monday or tuesday at the very latest !

I sent Tommy a new list part # on 1 or 2 thing were different but I think its the same was stupid thinks might not even be needed, I have all the part print outs for were each part goes just need to scan and post or email.Also there not showing a whole kit for after 07 classic have to buy ea part after 07.5 from what I saw when we pulled it up at the dealer.

I just read all 15 pages of this and now I am afraid to start my truck. I guess it would be a good excuse to build it up. Any of you that have cracked a piston or put a hole in one , I would be interested in one with the connecting rod attached. Let me know if you would part with it. I know things like that are often times kept for a reminder of what can happen.
