Well by the time you piece meal it you could have bought the top end kit. You are going to need upper, middle and lower rocker box gaskets, head and base gasket, intake seals, and exhaust gaskets( depending on conditon) . I woudl reccomend using a metal base as they almost never leak. I use all cometic kits and they are really not that much money and offer a great product.

Thanks HD but I could only use the rocker box gaskets that's why I can't use the kit. I don't have the stock valve guides for a EVO and I need a .30 head gasket and want to use a metal base gasket. So a HD factory kit will not work. Thanks again.

HD do you know where I can find the kit for just one jug I don't need it for both. Thanks. Do see just the one in J & P or just the head gasket in .30

Just a waste of money issue. I don't want to pay for something I don't need. But I have since found what I needed. I went to my local stealer today to get a primary gasket and the last one I bought was about 18.00 they now have a new and improved one for some reason and it was $30 bucks. I never had a problem with the old one leaking. $30 is just robbery.
