Re: Is this too much money?

Definitely use the one piece Felpro gasket... It is reusable and will save you money in the long run. Not to mention it is probably less likely to leak.

Re: Is this too much money?

i took a look at it and i would have to remove the exhaust as i could not get the oil pan out because they hit. Probably the starter, oil pan, main bearing cap, and maybe a few other things. Im going to double check and see if it is oil running down the block either from the intake or the oil temp sending unit. thanks for the help guys. if its the 2 pc seal, i think i will just take it in to get it done as fast as i can

I totally gotta agree. I also will say take some time and double check to make sure the oil is not coming from some where else. Cause it would suck to do the rear main and it not fix the problem. Not too bad a price either I don't think.
