    Gaskets

    I'm looking for a Rear main seal retainer gasket, Front Retainer Gasket, and water pump housing seal (the one that goes between the water diverter and water pump housing).

    Where can I find these other than maybe the dealer?

    You can get tham all from most auto-parts stores. Should be all the same as commonblock 8 valvers.

    I found both gasket sets. Will an o-ring be ok to replace the seal in the water housing?

    The o-ring is just fine for the waterpump. For the front & rear seal housings I would just use anerobic sealant instead of the gaskets.

    Anerobic for the front and rear seal retainers, get the O-ring from Mopar then use RTV for the block to deflector on the waterpump housing.

    I just bought the timing cover and rear main seal gasket sets from Autozone. I picked up a oring there that would fit also. I think everything came out to about 18 dollars. I guess I'll just have an extra rear main seal and front crank seal,lol.

    Thanks guys.
