SUBJECT:
DIESEL HEAD GASKET
The diesel gaskets listed below will supersede previous gaskets for servicing 5.7 liter diesel engines. These head gaskets are the same gaskets currently
recommended for use with .030" oversize pistons and will now be used for all applications. The use of these gaskets on standard engines should prevent
the possibility of loss of compression due to the gasket sealing ring "falling" into the combustion chamber. This supersession will also affect appropriate
gasket kits.
