gasket set
is their a place to get a full gasket set for my 1988 7.3l? my head gasket is leaking and i am not shure about the oil cooler leaking yet. i am thinking about just pulling the motor and rebuilding it just to be shure it is fixed and in good condition.or i might just replace the head gasket and go from there because their is a tight time and budget.

I just did mine in the truck, didn't rush, so I cant say how long start to finish, probably close to 20 hours. Getting the heads in and out was the only real issue, but I used an engine hoist so it wasn't too bad...
make sure you get a return line kit for the injectors in addition to the gaskets.
