Question
i just wanted to know what i needed to but to replace the head gasket on a 95 lumina 3.1 do i need the whole gasket set or just the valve cover and head gaskets.  do i need any special tools other than a torque wrench to do this?  do i need new head bolts?  thanks for your time

Answer
Hi Jerimiah, As far as gaskets needed....intake manifold,headgasket and rocker cover gaskets along with a tube of sealer for the end of the intake manifold. No special tools needed. BE SURE TO KEEP THE PUSH RODS IN THE SAME LOCATION OR YOU WILL BEND A VALVE.

Have a Great Day    Mark
