Re: Head Gasket Source

Thank you so much Brute4c for that awesome tech. I do have another question, I was looking at on online parts database and for 1967 it listed the Jeep Gladiator has having either a 3.8L 230 or a 3.8L 232. Anybody know anything about this? I'm not sure if it pertains to my situations, but I was curious. I find the history of these old engines rather fascinating.

One other thing, not that I don't beleive one person or another, its simply that I am getting conflicting information. Robert Cowan, would it be possible for you to post a pic of the civilian head gasket next to the military head gasket? I would just like to see a pic of both of them to identify the differences.

I am worried about the possible gasket differences because I just got done talking with the local autoparts store and all they were able to find was a complete engine gasket kit for a 230 for a Gladiator (they said the kit came with every gasket needed to rebuild the engine, not that I want to do that, but at least I'll have every gasket), and its not that bad of a price either. I'd like to go with that because I kinda need the gaskets quick. Anyway, thank you everyone for all the information thus far, hope someone can answer my other questions.
