Who do you recommend for gaskets? head gaskets are metal, right? And valve cover gaskets are what? rubber?

Yes, valve cover gaskets are rubber. IIRC head gaskets are metal with some sort of material surrounding it (my memory's no good).
I got all Fel-Pro gaskets when I did my head gasket job; things seem fine so far...I think I've put about 10K miles on my truck since the job, over the course of about 2 years...
Your van's a 15 seater, right? Any chance of letting it go? :Sly

To be honest, it could PROBABLY seat 15 people but there is only one middle seat. Most 15 seaters have three rows of bench seats or whatever those are called. Mine only has one. So it can probably seat 5 people comfortably. Anymore than that and I run the risk of human projectiles with a good brake check.

I used Fel Pro as well. Head gasket kit is $125 and valley pan is $55. Need both. Be carefull setting the heads on. I snagged a head gasket with the head and didn't know it. Pretty much *****'d it by puttin a crease in it and popping one of the cylinder rings out. That was a $45 mistake. Problem is can't get them locally. Northern Auto Parts carries them and has fast shipping. I got my original sets from autopartswarehouse.com I believe.
