[QUOTE="escapefjrtist, post: 595218, member: 238"] Excellent post and information. The Gen II's are a little different under the tank in that a thermostat o-ring is not needed. I replaced both rings on the coolant pipe as they were squared off and deformed quite a bit. Instead of going the Home Depot route, I sprung for o-rings from my local dealer. Without knowing what elastomer was originally used, I wasn't willing to go the generic route. Original valve cover gasket was in great shape so that went back in w/o leaks... Mine had one intake at .006 and one exhaust at .010, the rest were right in the middle. --G [/QUOTE]
