Motor rebuilds, what oem gaskets / seals do people replace or resuse?

[jaffaz32]

I'm in the process of cross referencing parts i have for a build, making sure i have everything i need before it goes in to the machine shop.


When people have had their motor built in the past what oem gaskets and seals do you replace? Do you replace every single gasket and seal found within the block and the head?


If that is the case is there a list with part numbers and quantities i can cross references with the ones i already have and order anything missing?


This will be a Forced Induction built motor so want to make sure it's sound, i will be opening the heads to port and install bigger valves etc.

If anyone can supply me of a list of oem gaskets needed would be much appreciated. I would imagine it would be every single gasket with the exception to where they are being upgraded for example the head gaskets.

Thanks.

Done lots of digging around the forum and not having much luck.

From what i can see, i've found these 2 part numbers for gasket kits:

Cylinder head: 061A1-PR7-000
Cylinder block: 061B1-PR7-000

Are these every single gasket you could possibly need when building a motor and the heads?

Is there a break down of part numbers these kits contain and quantities any where? as mentioned i have a box full of gaskets and seals, i just need the missing ones and i don't need head gaskets, cam seals and certain gaskets etc.

Someone must have a comprehensive list of what builders replace when building a motor, Someone must had gone to a non Nsx specialist and had to source their own gaskets?

I've gone through part lists

Surprisingly there isn't actually that many oil seals or gaskets to replace.

I've got the block set.

There is hardly any in the heads, steam seals, coil pack gaskets, cam cover gaskets, cam gaskets

Spool valve

Oil pump I'm good as I have a sos high flow pump that comes with main oil seal and new spring.

Few on the intake manifold

Manifold gaskets

Pretty much the lot from what I can work out.

Maybe get a few spare studs and nuts for the manifolds as I remember them being tight.
