    I bought the engine in parts and both sets came along. I have only screwed AMC before and there I used only the valley-pan, but with this Buick I dont know what is recommended...? Anyone have a suggestion? :)

    My question is really if I need the composite-gaskets in addition to the valley- pan gasket? Can't remember seeing any gaskets other than the valley pan gasket when i dissembled, but I'm not shure. :)

    The valley pan gasket is all you need. The other set of gaskets are the type that originally came on the 225 v-6 engines. Also does your valley pan gasket have the brush tack sealer with it?

    Thanks alot! I dont know what a brush tack sealer is, it came with 2 black rubber gaskets/sealers for the front and rear edges of the valley.
