1965-1972 Chevrolet 396 6.5L V8 Big Block Crankshaft Crank Key Turning Socket Tool 1/2" Generic

Gaskets fit perfectly and included 2 sets for the intake manifold. I did not use the paper kind. Headgasket is holding up. I also used the exhaust and oil pump gaskets. They fit well.
Flanged bolt heads come with this kit and simply won't work. The valve spring guards within the cylinder head (KA24DE) won't allow them to fall down and seat. See picture/video. That was a major issue for me but the company read my original review and did everything they could to make sure I was taken care of and I really appreciate that.

great value for the money. everything functions I had no problem with the fit went right on.

Who would have thought that with a kit from Amazon, a video on the internet, and a little help from the neighbors cat you would be able to rebuild a transmission at home. My 2004 Suburban has been back on the road for several months now. Advise: Getting the top bolts out of the engine is easier if you lower the transmission a lot. Put everything in bags and lay them out in the order they were removed. Reinstall in the reverse order. Make sure the torque converter seats in properly. It should drop in three times. If it doesn't you will be taking everything apart again. Verify the torque converter to flex plate spacing. If your transmission drain plug is stuck, weld a large nut onto it and use an impact wrench (after you have removed the pan and it is not full of oil).

My husbands work car transmission too a poop. My dad told me to order this and he would rebuild it. Worked great! Had everything he needed. Was packaged nicely, and received quickly

Im.still waiting on them
