Default Can feel pressure coming out b/t block and head at #6 cylinder

Thought I had a run of the mill exhaust leak but after a quick feel I now know the head gasket on at least one bank is blown. Where can I find the most complete kit for the job? Thanks in advance.

Make sure and get new bolts. Judging by your profile pic, you may already have all that is needed...

Also a new t/stat and if you still have the old style upper radiator hose with the bleeder screw built into it, get the up-dated hose or it will blow. A bottle of either Purple Ice or Water Wetter will also help your cooling system.

Have the heads checked for warpage.

I installed the new style hose with the water pump. Is this kit at AB THE ONE or should I consider another? I would like to perform this only once.
