Freightliner in Red Deer for a headgasket or any Cummins dealer should be able to get the gasket they just need your engine serial #.

ordered from peak, should be here tomorrow. Thanks. 6 weeks to heal from hernia surgery and I can get back to fixing my truck.

are they head gaskets the same between them all? I got two in my cummins kit, a thick and thin one, and still have the thin one left over.

winkdemon

there a bit different but they do work

darrenk

I ordered the standard thickness.

ACK!!! What did you do to my old truck!?!!?

Just kiddin, good to see you've still got it and are working it!

Case IH should be able to get the gasket for you
I am not sure if there is one in Rocky but phone Olds they are tolerant of the first gen guys bugging them Cough cough

I looked at some of your posts, sucks that the tranny is slipping. That TC was an aftermarket HD unit but I cann't remember who made it. It was pretty tight when I put it in, you must have been working it good!

The flexplate is from a 2nd gen Dodge, much heavier than the 1st gen origianl(still have the torn up original hanging on the garage wall). Valve body is stock except for a couple of extra turns on the line pressure screw.

Get the 4500 in yet?

darrenk

No I don't have the 4500 in yet. I got the engine out and on a stand then work got busy, and I ended up with a hernia so trucks just sitting there for a while.
