Well I bought a head gasket kit and it came with a ton of other gaskets so if anyone knows what gasket goes where please fill me in.

#1

#2(x11)

#3

#4

#5

#6

#7 (x16)

#8

#9

#10 (x2)

#11 (name blue, name yellow)

#12

And that's it! Except the headgasket...kinda knew what that one was

Also is there only supposed to be 2 of the metal sleaves between the block and head as pictured here:http://s6.photobucket.com/albu...8.jpg

Thanks in advance!

the majority of them are for your intake mani and egr stuff just look at averything that bolts to the intake manifold and it will come to you or use the FSM

#3 the only thing i can think of is maybe where the upper and lower exhaust mani bolt together they go around the lip of the piping #4 intake mani to head#6 looks like injector o-rings#7 is valve stem seals#8 lower intake mani to upper intake mani#9 crush washer for oil pan plug #10 AAC/AICV (idle control stuff on intake mani)#11 yellow is throttle body to intake mani/ blue looks like upper exhaust mani to lower mani#12 looks like mostly egr related stuff and the gasket with the silver ring inside is for the oil pickup to the front cover

Hope this helps some, I dont have a clue what the others are though.

# 5 isn't the front cover crank gasket. I just checked, its smaller than that one.

I didn't get a water pump gasket I think.

i have a theory on #3 which i found out by accident. i had bought a similar rebuild kit and had no idea what these were for. one day when i took just the down pipe off of the header i dropped it and two rings popped off the down pipe. they were same diameter and thickness. its the gaskets that goes between the header and down pipe.
