Front cover seal and valve cover gasket #

I'm replacing the gaskets on My engine and I found felpro sells them for $4.48 at advance auto, what is the part # for the ones from cummins? and does anyone know the price, I'd like to spend something close to the other price.

Also I'm ready to do the KDP and I know I need the crankshaft seal what is the best one? Is cummins the best or are others better? This is something I don't mind spending some dough since I don't want to do it twice. Any part #'s? Do I need any more parts besides the seal for the KDP fix?


Thank You.

Look in the sticky for answers to all your questions.

The front cover gasket can often be reused. Usually it will stick to the cover, and that's good as long as it peels off the case without tearing. If it stays stuck to the cover all the way around, then you can just clean it up good, run a thin bead of RTV around it, and it will seal up perfectly.

Go Cummins on all the seals and gaskets.
