Yes, I HAVE searched about 3 times using different terms. (BHG Blown head gasket, bhg parts list, bhg repair)

Now, My question doesn't have to do with the hard parts(I have them)

But my question is what chemicals do I need? Such as applicants, grease, glueish thingies...I'm using an OEM gasket with ARPs

I'm doing the swap TONIGHT and need the car by sunday, so ANY help at all would be GREATLY appreciated.

PS. I tried searching SF but they don't have a search button anymore ;[

The ARP's come with the required anti-seize in the box. Im sure other people can tell you about the rest...I didnt do mine myself.

Uhh.... I have 500RTV high heat silicone sealant. Is that good enough? BTW, can you suggest some brands I should go for? If not, I'm just gonna ass out and get the cheapest shit I can find.

PS. How long do I let the car sit til I can drive?

For the ARP bolts, ^^^is right, you have to use moly lube. You can also use engine assembly lube on the bolts, it is basically the same stuff.

New oil filter? Brake clean spray... EVERY job needs some of that. Other than that, sounds like you have it covered.

Don't worry about the search police, we basically don't have them. I mean, we do appreciate it when you spend the effort to try to find the information yourself, but if someone were to reply with "Hey, why don't you use the F**KING search button, asshat?", we would slap them down but FAST.

DONT FORGET THE GOJO, that job gets greesy and gross quick. Get some tubs and lots of paper towels, and if it helps some masking tape to label the vacuum hoses. Other than that just make sure to smother your parts in molly lube while you put it together.

Use the Moly lube supplied with the bolts (my studs came with it) and follow the instructions provided by arp.

Holy shit, after taking apart alot of the engine, it seems like the previous owner didn't use many gaskets!
