Default Gasket kits for 1993

Well the ol cummins molars is starting to show... I was wondering what type of work should I be looking at to do a rear main seal, oil pan gasket and valve cover gaskets. I also would like to do head gasket and ARP head studs. Anyone done these gaskets? How long should this take?

As the light duty and performance dealer for PTC I have found this on there gaskets

upper kits are fine the head gaskets are hit and miss but they will make it right with you if they blow there

lower kits are 100% junk IMO there main seals seem to be ok but as far as fit and sealing they suck

hard parts such as bearings and pistions I really like I just put .20 over pistions and stock bearings in a motor with about 600HP and no issues yet

there turbos and injectors seem to be ok as well

if you want something form PTC just let me or one of our dealers know and we will get ya taken care of if you deal with them direct there is a minimum purchase and all that crap
