I used the Dorman set and it is JUNK!!! The gaskets are made of a poor quality material. It leaked antifreeze like crazy...

Felpro or Mopar Performance P4876049 is a good set...and use mopar performance bolts P4876772(they are half the price of the Felpros and are still torque to yield).

It's worth 35 just for the other stuff it comes with, just use FelPro for the gaskets.

The bolts included with this kit are zinc plated steel and not torque to yield, which is not a good thing. This is just cheap China made junk...I would never buy this kit again.
