is there anything else besides the head and headgasket that i will need? putting a 96 SOHC head on a 01 SOHC.

 

1 problem... EGR valve. It has to be blocked off,

A vendor on the .org has a plate for it, i believe.

You will have to use the 1gn valve cover and some sensor wires may need to be lengthened ( not to sure about this one).

 

I just noticed oil leaking from the right side of my valve cover. How much is a new head and gasket? I really want this fixed and soon. How much labor is involved?

 

smallblock, they are interchangeable, that is accually what i am running, u just need to use a block off plate for egr, and MAKE SURE TO CHANGE SENSORS OVER!!!! wiring u can use and also second gen valve cover u can use as well!

 

+1 i got a 1st gen engine dat im working on. just got to change the sensors and block the egr valve. karr depends on where u go get it done and its a lot of work

 

what sensors? Just the cam position sensor?

 

cam is the major one, coolant temp sensor next to it u have to change as well.... i think the coolant temp is the same, but i am not 100%

 

So i need to use my sensors on the 96 or use 1st gen sensors? Just making sure here.

 

use ur sensors. off the 01

 

alright thanks for the clarification. I'll prolly stop up at your house when i'm home i'll give you a text.
