You have the part number by chance? Tousley doesn't show any push rods for 6.0 or 6.4.


CMK, out of the list I had I could only get three of the parts from tousley which would have saved me about $30 but I would have to pay separate shipping from another place which is around $20 so it is nearly a wash for me. But I do still need to get the oil pump, water pump, and front cover gasket so I will be adding stuff up and checking them out again.

New lifters come in today! Identical besides the recess for the oil hole is round instead of a trapezoid cut out and the oil hole is slightly smaller. Still working on putting an order together for the rest of the gaskets and studs and stuff. I have been swamped.

Oh and I had something that has been bugging me but I keep forgetting to ask. The FICM had no rubber washers/grommets in its big ear holes where it bolts to the bracket. Is this how it is supposed to be, just metal on metal or should there be rubber grommets in there?

I'll PM you the address.
And the FICM on mine does not have any bushings. I think it depends on
the year. I recall what I have read somewhere. But don't hold me to that
one. Someone will speak up on that.

There are no rubber grommets between the ficm and the brackets, however it appears the brackets are mounted to the motor using rubber isolators.

Ok good, thought someone might have been playing around with something. Tousley called to confirm only one valve cover gasket on the order and said everything should be here today or tomorrow. Then just have to wait for the riffraff order and I'll have all I need to put the motor together(ish).

I didn't see dumby plug o-rings or stand pipe o-rings listed anywhere. Just the upgrade stand tubes and dumby plugs.

And lpop and water pump are way to much at tousley. I am looking at the oem ones on ebay, >$50 for the lpop and >$100 for the water pump.

Does the small front lpop cover come with a crank seal?

later we can talk about fluids. I know everyone likes to talk about fluids!

The lpop cover does NOT come with a crank seal. You'll have to order that separately and it, like the rear seal, takes an install tool. I, personally, would not do an OEM water pump. I'd get one with a metal impeller and IIRC they're cheaper anyway. <$50 for the gerotor gears is a good price but $54 from AN so consider your freight. I remember when they were $28 but those days are long gone. If you get OEM headgaskets they come with new standpipes in the kit so all you need is dummy plugs, which you can get separately.

Nice I will have to look in the box. I just got home and see the tousley order is here already! Box is heavy for "just gaskets".
