What kind of gasket kit ?

I am planning of stripping down my 930 engine this winter.

The plan is to replace original head studs and install SC cams.

Will replace all gaskets. What kind of gasket kit do I need to buy?

Anyone have ready "shopping list"

Kind regards
Trond

Get the Viton kit for your engine. Viton is better and tougher than the silicone kits. It would be a Wrightwood Racing kit, which I believe is available at PP. I have had no leaks with these in 3 years.

Does not have an overview of all gaskets that I need.

I see that PP has a "complete engine gasket set" (H-100-908-02KTN)
Will this cover all gaskets I need, or does I need more?

Please list if anyone have an overview?

Agreed. The last complete rebuild I did, was done with a Wrightwood Racing kit. Not only is the quality better than the Reinz set, it is completely customizable. I called up and said, yep, '76 2.7S CIS but with hydraulic tensioners and backdated exhaust. There was no waste in the kit.

As each kit is customized for the buyer, I do not believe any mail-order houses stock/supply them. They usually have to be ordered from a race shop. I got mine from EBS Racing, and I believe other shops that post here in this forum supply them. I don't want to speak for them, though.
