I just installed new felpro head gaskets and put the inserts in to corner water jackets. When I went to throw the box away there was another bag of 4 inserts in the bottom under everything else.

I am guessing this was an error when it was packed and shouldn't have been there. I can't imagine any other reason.

Any thoughts.

I also plan on torquing head studs to 85 ft lbs.

What have you done with yours?

Sorry I have no information on this. Didn't know the 6.9 gasket came with a choice of incerts.

I'm in the middle of pulling my heads to have gone through by the machine shop while I'm doing a head stud and turbo install...I plan on having the machine shop get a Felpro set of gaskets (probably the whole engine set as I plan on resealing the water pump, oil cooler, and whatever else I can get my hands on. Interesting that I found this...maybe someone will respond that knows.
